Brief overview of work I carried out as part of my Master Dissertation on the Roman Ridge feature in South Yorkshire. This is a linear earthwork which splits into two branches. Its dating, despite its name, is uncertain. I reviewed the condition and state of knowledge about the feature, and proposed a different interpretation - namely that the earthwork was possibly delineating a liminal space between its two branches rather than a border.

Extract from "Transactions of the Hunter Archaeological Society 1999". Article based on work I carried out as part of my Master Dissertation on the Roman Ridge feature in South Yorkshire. This is a linear earthwork which splits into two branches. Its dating, despite its name, is uncertain, and this paper examines the dating evidence, as well as proposing a possible function for the feature - namely that the earthwork was possibly delineating a liminal space between its two branches rather than a border.
