Full Description
28 June 1990. NAU air photography.
Ring ditch.
D.Edwards (NAU).
November 2008. NBIC Northeast Norwich Scoring Project.
This possible ring ditch is in close proximity to several other possible ring ditches and Prehistoric mounments (see NHER 12786, NHER 36750, NHER 36471) as well as a possible Neolithic causewayed enclosure (NHER 7690).
There is an area of more closely grouped ring ditches located southeast of RAF Coltishall. This group includes NHER 5788, NHER 5789, NHER 36338, NHER 36339, NHER 36346, NHER 36473, NHER 36725, NHER 36726, NHER 36727, NHER 36728, and outlying NHER 11672.

March 2012.
The cropmarks of a Bronze Age round barrow are visible on aerial photographs (S1). The site is centred on TG 2577 2230. The interior of the ring ditch appears lighter in colour than the surrounding sub-soil, suggesting an element of the central mound may survive.
