Map

Southwest of Limekiln Plantation.
Site of lime kiln.
Marked on (S1), but not on (S2).
E. Rose (NAU) 29 February 1980.

June 2002. Norfolk NMP.
Approximately 65m to the southwest of this point is an area of parching, visible on the 1946 RAF vertical images, (S3). This may be a natural solution feature but may also be the remains of a levelled kiln. Approximately 325m to the southeast is a second parched anomaly, which is likely to be geologically natural but may also be a kiln site.
See NHER 27842 for details.
M. Brennand (NMP), 18 June 2002.
