 Chiselbury Cauip. O.M. 70 NW. Not shown here in A. W. I. 

 Stations VIII., IX., which however shows 2 barrows close

 Earthworks. Grims ditch running E. & W. forming S. boundary of 

 Bishopstone and Broadchalke and divides Wilts and Hants until it 

 meets the Roman Rd. O.M. 70 SE. From this point it apparently 

 turns S. and reappears on O.M. 7o NE. coming from the Hants bor- 

 der and Roman Rd. and running E. to W. in Vernditch Chase wood 

 for 1-mile, then turns at right angle S. for ^-mile and turns again at 

 right angle W. and runs out of the parish and county, crosses the 

 corner of Hampshire into Pentridge and Dorset entering Wilts 

 (Bowerchalke) again at Shire Rack. "The course of this bank and 

 ditch is more irregular and winding than any I have yet followed " 

 Hoare, A.W. I. 232, 244, Stations VII., VIII., IX. 



Hoare thinks it a boundary ditch not a covered way, or road, as it has 

 no British villages on its track. The bank is throughout its course 

 on the E. or N. side whereas as that of Bokerly is on the S. side.
