Full Description
February 2008. Norfolk NMP.
Earthworks of medieval ridge and furrow and a possible hollow way are visible on aerial photographs (S1). Two areas of possible ridge and furrow earthworks were present to the southwest of Wallington Hall (NHER 2425). They are separated by an L-shaped sunken linear feature which measures up to 10m in width. It is possible that this earthwork relates to a hollow way between the fields containing the ridge and furrow. The present condition of these earthworks is uncertain.
