Full Description
2 August 1977. NAU aerial photography.
Line of old road, as cropmark. Apparently cut by Haddiscoe Hall emparkment.
D. Edwards (NAU), 18 March 1981.
The central grid reference of this site has been altered from TM 4344 9670 to TM 4342 9671.
June 2007. Norfolk NMP.
The cropmarks of a road or trackway of probable medieval to post medieval date are visible on aerial photographs within Haddiscoe Park (S1). The site is centred on TM 4342 9671. The feature is visible as a parched linear cropmark, up to 4m apart, and a narrow ditch. The trackway does not appear to relate the park landscape and in particular does not lead towards Haddiscoe Hall itself. The route would therefore appear to pre-date the establishment of the park, which judging from the historical map evidence would be between 1809 and 1841, as it is marked on the 1841 Haddiscoe Tithe map (S3) and not on the 1809 Haddiscoe Enclosure map (S2).
S. Massey (NMP), 29 June 2007.
