Full Description
August 2023. Aylsham and Brampton Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
Fragmentary linear ditches, including part of a possible D-shaped or curvilinear enclosure, all of unknown date, are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1-S3). A possible pit is also visible. The features lie on the northern fringes of Brampton Roman town (NHER 66780 and related), and could also be of Roman date, but an earlier or later origin is also feasible. It is also possible that they represent more than one phase of activity.
