Full Description
April 2012. Norfolk NMP.
Several earthwork ditches are visible on aerial photographs (S1), to the south of Pilgrim’s Farm, Wymondham. They are centred on TM 0976 9736 and appear likely to be the remnants of post medieval garden features, or land division associated with the farm. They are oriented largely north-south, and appear to respect the field boundaries visible on the 2nd edition Ordnance Survey map. Those to the west still appear to be visible as slight earthworks in 1999 (S2).

The above features are visible on visualised lidar data from a survey flown in 2021 and on aerial photographs form 2024 (S3-S4).
