Full Description
Pre September 1980.
Cropmark. Ordnance Survey aerial photograph.
Kinked linear cropmark in field where two stone axes were found (Co.No.1893).
Mark is broken in several places and at the south end forms a right angled corner.
See 6 inch (S1) and 1:2500 overlays.
Compiled by J. Bown (NAU), 1 October 1980.
September 2025. Northwest Norfolk Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AI&M) Project.
The linear cropmark described above is only visible on one of the consulted sources (S2). The appearance of the mark is such that it is almost certainly a mark of recent agricultural origin, related to the application of fertiliser or similar. It has not been mapped by the project.
S. Tremlett (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 17 September 2025.
