"The dyke consists of a massive bank and ditch running 4 miles between Fulbourn and Balsham. Fen Ditton, or High Ditch is the western part of Fleam Dyke near Cambridge."
Fen Ditton is a good three miles northwest of Fulbourn and quite some distance from the existing section of the Dyke, so this paragraph is confusing; does it mean that the dyke was originally longer than the four mile section which remains today, or was the section in Fen Ditton part of a different earthworks, or does the text refer to a different Fen Ditton? I assume it's the first explaination, but I don't want to change the article myself as I'm far from an expert. Iain99 Balderdash and piffle 13:19, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
Seems someone added the dyke to the wikipedia list of Bronze Age Sites in Cambridgeshire. Not sure why as it doesnt seem to be anywhere near that old — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.253.110.120 ( talk) 14:52, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
