Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Fleam Dyke, near Fulbourn This earthwork runs for four miles in a north-west/south-east direction, between the villages of Fulbourn and Balsham. It is generally assumed to be Anglo-Saxon in origin, although archaeological finds of early and late Bronze Age origin seem to indicate that much older earthworks existed at this location. Fleam Dyke was originally much longer, but has been reduced in length over the years through farming activities. The dyke is one of a number of earthworks in South Cambridgeshire, designed to control and restrict the movement of people. The other earthworks in the vicinity are Devil's Dyke, Brent Ditch and Bran Ditch.
