Enclosure east of Whitelee Bridge (Rochester and Byrness)

Unusual rectilinear enclosure, east of Whitelee Bridge, with four separate surrounding banks in places, perhaps indicative of different phases of construction. Clearly visible on lidar imagery. Unlike anything else noted in Redesdale. Nothing shown here on historic Ordnance Survey maps. Several other rectilinear enclosures in the vicinity are clearly related, all presumably linked to post-medieval agriculture. (1)
