Summary

An undated, probably medieval to post medieval, bank was identified as an earthwork during field survey. It probably corresponds to a bank visible as an earthwork on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015; this forms part of a very extensive group of boundaries, enclosures and trackways, most of probable medieval to post medieval date (NHER 61542), which extends across and around Thetford Warren.
