Earthworks. Wansdyke. Hoare A. W. II. 16 — 33 Station X. traces its 

 whole course with plan, and discusses other writers' accounts. 

 Collinson says it comes from Portishead, Hoare cannot trace its 

 existence beyond Maes Knoll Camp, S.E. of Bristol. Thence by 

 Stantonbury Camp, Englishcombe to Cross Keys turnpike— then a 

 gap— fragments in Prior Park, Bath, nothing at Claverton — from 

 Bathampton Camp it descends to cross Avon — lost again— reappears 

 on Farleigh Down— but between Farleigh Clump and Morgans Hill 

 no trace of it as a ditch. Hoare believes that it is later than the 

 Roman Road and in this part of its course, it appropriated the exist- 

 ing Roman Road as a part of its line of demarkation. 



Stukeley regarded it as a Belgic boundary, Hoare believes it Saxon, 

 A.W. II. 16—30, 27, 28. It always has its ditch to the north. 

 Hoare believes Maes Knoll, Stantonbury, and Bathampton Camps 

 to be later additions to the Dyke. Coming out of Somerset about 

 £mile N. of the Manor House, Monkton Farleigh, it forms N. 

 boundary of the parish throughout. O.M. 32 NW. ; W.A.M. xx. 

 70, 72.
