NHER 57411 (Negative evidence record) - Site where geophysical survey identified no evidence for archaeological significant remains

July 2012. Norfolk NMP.
The site of possible former medieval to early post medieval enclosures and boundaries may be visible on aerial photographs (S1). The site is centred on TM 0396 9602. No NMP mapping was undertaken of these possible features due uncertainty over their age and significance. The features are only clearly visible as a combination of soilmarks and slight earthworks in 1995 (S1). Earlier aerial photographs, such as those dating to 1946 (S2), revealed no convincing traces of these definite features (other than those relating to former field boundaries marked on historic maps, for example the Ordnance Survey Second Edition map (S3)). Additionally photography taken in 1970 (S4) indicates a small plantation or tree nursery on the site and it is therefore possible that all of these very clear enclosure and boundary-like marks visible in 1995 relate to the removal of trees and other horticultural activities.

November 2015. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of proposed development site.
No potentially archaeologically-significant anomalies were identified.
An east-to-west aligned linear anomaly crossing the central part of the site corresponds with a former field boundary depicted on the Ordnance Survey First Edition Six-inch map (S5), while two strong linear anomalies to the north were caused by modern services.
Two areas of magnetic disturbance recorded in the south-east part of the site are thought to represent building rubble or similar material.
See report (S6) for further details.

It is noted in report (S6) that it was confirmed that the 'earthworks' on this site were created between October and December 1987, during the clearance of debris from a former conifer plantation that had been largely destroyed during the gales.
