Full Description
December 2011. Field vist.
Two parallel banks, up to 5m wide and up to 0.5m high. These features probably post date an adjacent curving bank above.
These banks are plantation boundary banks; the formed the boundaries to Kingbee Belt, as shown on (S1).

February 2018. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
The post medieval plantation banks described above are visible as earthworks on imagery from a lidar survey (S2). As mentioned above, they are depicted on the Ordnance Survey 1st edition 6 inch map (S1), and as a consequence they have not been mapped by the project. They are just part of a much more extensive group of such features clearly visible on the lidar imagery.
S. Tremlett (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 7th February 2018.
