Summary

Aerial photographs taken in 1976 show the cropmarks of a sub-rectangular at this location. Earlier photographs show that the enclosure corresponds with a field boundary depicted on the 2nd edition Ordnance Survey Map, and it was therefore not mapped during the National Mapping Programme.

November 2012. Norfolk NMP.
Earthworks of possible medieval to post medieval field boundaries are visible on aerial photographs on land to the east of Hockham Lodge, Shropham, and to the west, into Hockham. These earthworks have been recorded separately as NHER 57470, and are visible in close proximity to the previously recorded banked enclosure described above, however this feature has not been mapped since it is visible as a boundary depicted on the second edition Ordnance Survey Map.
