Full Description

May 2007. Norfolk NMP
A cropmark of a ring ditch of probable Bronze Age date is visible on aerial photographs (S1-S2). This cropmark is centred on TG 4095 0710 and was previously recorded as part of NHER 36344. The ring ditch is slightly sub-circular in plan with a narrow ditch and an external diameter of 17m. It is probable that it is of Bronze Age date and that it relates to a round barrow. Two more ring ditch cropmarks are located 140m to its north (NHER 36344).
