NHER 51951 (Monument record) - Cropmarks of possible linear field boundaries

The Norfolk Heritage Explorer is a filtered version of the Norfolk HER intended for casual research. Please contact us to consult the full record.

Summary

Cropmarks of undated linear ditch features are visible on aerial photographs. These cropmarks are likely to relate to a medieval to post medieval field system, such as those to the north (NHER 45123). However, their alignment has more in common with the possible Iron Age to Roman enclosures 220m to the east (NHER 51950), and an earlier date for these fragmentary features cannot be ruled out.
