Full Description
September 2005. Norfolk NMP.
The cropmarks of a possible ring ditch are visible on aerial photographs in arable land to the west of Waxham Hall. The site is centred on TG 4431 2601 and consists of an incomplete ring ditch, measuring 12m in diameter. The archaeological origin of this cropmark is not definite and it is possible that it is of agricultural or even geological origin. Other cropmarks of ring ditches have been record a Bronze Age round barrow. The ring ditch is located in the centre of two field systems, one of possible Iron Age to Romano-British date, the other post medieval. (NHER 27305, 27309).
