Full Description
Some of these cropmarks were previously recorded under NHER 9815.
March 2009. Norfolk NMP.
The cropmarks of probable medieval to post medieval ditches, field boundaries are visible on aerial photographs to the south of Hallback Lane, Caistor St Edmund (S1-S4). The site is centred on TG 2450 0427. A few minor fragments of these cropmarks are depicted as field boundary on the 1840 Caistor St Edmund Tithe map (S5) although the majority would appear to pre-date this field layout, suggesting a medieval origin for the trackway and boundaries.
S. Horlock (NMP), 23 March 2009.
