Bokerley Dyke

Bokerley Dyke (or Bokerley Ditch) is a Romano-British defensive dyke 3.25 miles long in north east Dorset, England, near the villages of Woodyates and Pentridge. Bokerley Dyke may have originated in the Bronze Age or Early Iron Age and formed a political and cultural boundary. It was cut through by a Roman Road in the 1st century. In the 4th century it was remodelled and bought back into use, and excavations show that the Roman road was blocked.
