Full Description

May 2008. Norfolk NMP.
The cropmarks of a group of undated and fragmentary field boundaries and trackways are visible on aerial photographs to the north of Burgh Hall Country Club (S1-S2). The date of these field boundaries is uncertain. The relationship between these boundaries and the fragmentary fields and enclosures recorded under NHER 45230, interpreted as being late prehistoric to Roman in date, is uncertain. The ditches follow slightly different alignments and are therefore possibly part of different phases of enclosure.
