The story behind the design

THE WALL WAS A HOLE. The town that walled itself in did it with a ditch.

The Battle Ditches on the south-west edge of the town are the surviving corner of a great rectangular earthwork that once enclosed medieval Walden. Medieval documents call it the Magnum Fossatum, Latin for "great ditch"; later it was known as the Repell or Battle Ditches. The museum's curator prefers "the Town Ditch": a boundary that probably marked where market tolls could be charged, with some defensive purpose too. Most of it is now buried, but its line still shapes property boundaries today.
