November 2007. Norfolk NMP
Cropmarks of linear boundary banks, probably field boundaries of medieval to post medieval date, are visible on aerial photographs (S1). These boundaries have a rectilinear plan that does not correspond to the post medieval field pattern (S2). It is likely that they are field boundaries of medieval to early post medieval date. The area of these cropmarks has since been covered by a housing estate.
