Mapletree Lane by College Wood

Mapletree Lane here runs between two strong (medieval?) boundary ditches and wood banks. These are unusually wide apart, leading me to think that this was perhaps a drove road. It is also very straight - on the line of a Roman road perhaps. The present path meanders between the wood banks through secondary woodland.
