Full Description
November 2006. Norfolk NMP
Cropmarks of undated linear ditches and incomplete rectilinear enclosures are visible on aerial photographs (S1). These cropmarks are centred on TG 3243 1957. Two overlapping groups of linear ditch and enclosure cropmarks are present. The first of these lies on a roughly west to east and north to south alignment. Four adjoining ditches, probably field boundaries, are present in the western part of the group. In the east of the group of cropmarks is an incomplete enclosure on a similar alignment. Only two sides are present as cropmarks and it measures at least 47m by 32m. Cutting across these field boundaries and enclosure is a linear ditch cropmark on a northwest to southeast alignment. Two more ditches on a southwest to northeast alignment join its northeast side at right angles forming in an incomplete enclosure or field with dimensions of 40m by at least 30m. Although it appears that two separate groups of fields are represented by these cropmarks, neither corresponds to the modern field pattern and both are undated.
