The cropmarks of a series of three parallel ditches or drains of unknown definite date are visible on aerial photographs, to the west of Barton Farm, Sea Palling (S1). The site is centred on TG 4140 2683. These linear features have no obvious link with the post medieval landscape that surrounds them, which could suggest that they are significantly earlier.

The most substantial ditch of the three runs from TG 4133 2683 to TG 4146 2685 and is 126m long and 1 to 2m wide. The other two ditches are parallel and 4m and 8m apart.
