Full Description
September 2014. Breaking New Ground field visit. HA 13.
A linear mound, measuring 20m long by 8m wide and up to 0.8m tall. It has a flat top and irregular gently sloping sides. It is of uncertain purpose and origin.

December 2017. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
The linear or trapezoidal mound described above is visible as an earthwork on imagery from a recent lidar survey (S1) [1]. Its appearance on the lidar indicates that it may be a modern feature, but it could instead form part of the boundaries and trackways recorded to the east and south as NHER 62066. Parts of these may in turn relate to the medieval to post-medieval Santon Warren (NHER 54065).
S. Tremlett (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 13 December 2017.
