Two lengths of Offa's Dyke lie in quarter sheet SJ 17 SE (in km square SJ 1574).
(1) SJ 152 749. An approximately 40m length of bank lies in a field which has been ploughed regularly in recent years. Despite this it still survives as a low bank some 15m in width and no more than 0.5m high. The field is currently under cattle pasture.
(2) SJ 153 747. A length of bank some 120m long survives on the crest of a low ridge. Spread by ploughing, it measures about 15m across with a maximum height of 0.8m.
