Full Description
1944 & 1966. RAF and Ordnance Survey air photography.
A probable medieval saltern is visible as an earthwork at TF 6329 2534, northwest of North Wootton.
The mound is one of a large group in this area and seems to have a smaller mound (possibly actually part of it) to its northwest.
The main mound appears to have been incorporated into a post medieval sea defence.
