Full Description
October 2006. Norfolk NMP.
Ditches are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1), centred at TG 4217 2001. Their rectilinear arrangement suggests that they may represent part of a former field system. Their orientation indicates that they probably pre-date the pattern of enclosure depicted on 19th and 20th century maps such as (S2). A later prehistoric, Iron Age to Roman date has been suggested for ditches with a similar orientation visible 250m to the west (NHER 44802). At the same time, it should be noted that the features are visible on only one set of aerial photographs, and that their archaeological origin is not certain.
S. Tremlett (NMP), 30 October 2006.
