March 2009. Norfolk NMP.
A linear feature of a possible field boundary is visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs (S1)-(S2), centred on TG 2700 0896.
The feature stretches for approximately 70m, east to west, and it is possible that it represents an extension of the existing field boundary to the west, although it may be related to the site of 'Yermouthe Way', medieval and possible Roman road (NHER 9690) 38m to the north. As such the feature has been tentatively assigned a possible Roman, or medieval to post medieval date. The only finds in the near vicinity were a number of prehistoric flint flakes 43m to the south (NHER 9691), and a medieval to post medieval jetton 118m to the north-east (NHER 37362)
