Full Description
July 2023. Aylsham and Brampton Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
Linear ditches of unknown date are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1-S2). They do not conform to the pattern of enclosure depicted on 19th century maps, such as the Ordnance Survey 1st edition 6 inch (S3), and it is probable that they are field boundaries of medieval or earlier date.
S. Tremlett (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 21 July 2023.
