Map

October 2004. Norfolk NMP.
A cropmark of a possible incomplete ring ditch is visible on aerial photographs (S1). This cropmark is located at TG 3289 3004. A narrow single ditch forms an incomplete sub-circular ring with a diameter of 22m. A break in the ditch on its northwest side could be a causeway or entrance, but this is uncertain. The southeast side of the ring ditch has been disturbed by an adjacent gas pipeline. It is possible that this ring ditch relates to a Bronze Age round barrow.
