Full Description
December 2006. Norfolk NMP.
The cropmarks recorded under NHER number represent undated and fragmentary cropmarks located to the south of Cherry Lane, Belton with Browston (S1-S4). The site is centred on TG 4953 0152. The majority of the features recorded are fragmentary linear ditches that are likely to represent the remains of former field boundaries of unknown and post medieval date. The cropmarks in this area that appeared to be of late prehistoric or Roman date have been recorded under NHER 45229.
