Medieval Field Systems, Langcliffe
Strip lynchets in the fields around Langcliffe in the Yorkshire Dales.
'Lynchets' - ridges, terraces of sloping ground (Old English).
Strip lynchets in a Medieval field system are believed to have been created by single-throw ploughing, and follow the contour lines of the hillside.
