NHER 52053 (Cropmark and Earthwork record) - Cropmarks of fragmentary undated linear features, possible boundary ditches and enclosures

April 2009. Norfolk NMP.
A series of fragmentary and undated linear features are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1)-(S2), centred on TG 2788 0587. For the mostpart, it is likely that these linear features represent fragments of field boundary ditches in similar way to those to the south-east (NHER 52052), and as such may date to the Late Prehistoric to Roman period, or to the medieval to post medieval period.

A possible enclosure may also be visible, centred on TG 2785 0566, with a curved south-west corner, measuring at least 123m by 132m. It is difficult to say whether the north west-south east ditches to the north east make up a third side of the enclosure, or whether these are related to a different phase of activity, and a lack of datable finds from the area makes it difficult to offer any more tangible dating evidence for the features.
