Full Description
November 2023. Wendling Beck and Fransham Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
Part of a probable post medieval road is visible an earthwork, soilmarks and cropmarks on visualised lidar data and aerial photographs (S1-S4). The feature probably corresponds to the curvilinear road depicted in this area on Faden’s 1797 Map of Norfolk (S5). As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently (2017) it is likely that the earthwork elements of the site still survive.
