November 2006. Norfolk NMP
A World War Two slit trench is visible on aerial photographs (S1-S2). This trench was positioned on the corner of Ropes Hill and Lower Street at Horning at TG 3405 1784. It had a crenellated pattern plan and extended for at least 60m. Its position along the field boundary suggests that it was for defence rather than military training.
