NHER 44989 (Cropmark and Earthwork record) - A cropmark of a possible Bronze Age ring ditch

August 2006. Norfolk NMP
A cropmark of a ring ditch, possibly a Bronze Age round barrow, is visible on aerial photographs (S1-S2). This cropmark is located at TM 3748 9376. The ring ditch has a slightly sub-circular plan with a narrow ditch and an external diameter of 11m. It is probable that this ring ditch is of Bronze Age date and that it relates to a round barrow. A cropmark of an elongated oval pit, measuring 3m by 1.5m is present in the centre of the ring ditch. It is possible that this is a grave associated with the round barrow. This ring ditch is situated close to the head of a shallow southwest facing dry valley at approximately 20m OD.
