Full Description
The below features were previously recorded as part of NHER 21834
August 2022. Aylsham and Brampton Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
The cropmarks of a section of probable post medieval trackway are seen on aerial photographs (S2-S4). The feature may relate to the western section of a trackway or road mapped on Faden’s map of Norfolk (S5). The western section of trackway appears to have been subsequently removed and is not visible on later historic maps (such as S6 and S67). The eastern section of trackway (not mapped) continues in use into the modern period and is removed by the 1980s (S1). Although the feature is likely to be post medieval in date, it is possible that the section of trackway may have continued in use from the Medieval period, so an earlier date cannot be ruled out.
