Full Description
April 2010. Norfolk NMP.
A possible enclosure and related linear ditches are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1) on land to the west of Red Hall Farm, Beeston St Andrew, centred on TG 2463 1391.
The enclosure measures 33m by 19m internally, and the ditches measure up to 6.3m in width, suggesting that it may represent a former moat. To the east are a number of possible field boundaries, and to the west a possible trackway, indicated by two parallel ditches approximately 4.7m apart.
E. Bales (NMP), April 2010.
