The United Kingdom s longest ancient monument has been damaged by centuries of gradual benign neglect , says an association fighting to preserve it.
A fund has started to help preserve the 8th Century Offa s Dyke earthwork.
Offa s Dyke has a lot of catching up to do compared with other monuments like Hadrian s Wall and Stonehenge, according to its association chairman.
Dave McGlade said the 177 mile (285 km) monument on the Wales-England border is a sensitive archaeological landscape. It is also a scheduled monument, protected by statute law, and deserves to be treated with the utmost respect, added the Offa s Dyke Association chairman.
