Map

March 2006. Norfolk NMP.
A cropmark of a linear ditch, possibly a boundary ditch of unknown date, is visible on aerial photographs (S1-S3). This cropmark is centred on TF 7373 3550. A single linear ditch cropmark is visible for 315m on a southwest to northeast alignment between TF 7365 3535 and TF 7380 3563. The ditch is up to 3m wide and it is likely that it is a field or other boundary ditch. It lies at an angle to the surviving post medieval field pattern and appears to pre-date the laying out of the park around Fring Hall to its south.
