NHER 54514 (Monument record) - Cropmarks of possible medieval to post-medieval enclosure ditches

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 possible linear ditches are visible on aerial photographs on land within Kilverstone Heath. These features are rather faint and it is difficult to be certain that they are archaeological in nature, but it is possible that they relate to two holdings or enclosures depicted on Faden’s Map of Norfolk, and may therefore be medieval to post-medieval in date.

Full Description

November 2010. Norfolk NMP.
Cropmarks of undated possible linear ditches are visible on aerial photographs (S1) on land within Kilverstone Heath. They are centred on TL 9078 8727 and generally oriented northwest-southeast. These features are rather faint and it is difficult to be certain that they are archaeological in nature, but it is possible that they relate to two holdings or enclosures depicted on Faden’s Map of Norfolk (S2), and may therefore be medieval to post-medieval in date.
E. Bales (NMP), 05 November 2010.
