Full Description
December 2023. Wendling Beck and Fransham Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
A sub-rectangular enclosure of unknown date and function is visible as an earthwork on 1940s aerial photographs (S1-S3). More recent aerial photographs (S4) show that the earthwork appears to have been levelled. A trial trench excavated in this area did not identify any finds or features (NHER 66075).
