Full Description
April 2024. Wendling Beck and Fransham Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
A probable post medieval field boundary is visible as a low earthwork bank on visualised lidar data (S1). As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently (2017) it is likely that the earthwork still survives. The bank broadly fits the pattern of enclosure depicted on the 19th century Enclosure Map (S2), suggesting it is of relatively late date. It is quite different in character and alignment to the medieval to post medieval earthworks of field boundaries and ridge and furrow visible immediately to its south (NHER 68103).
S. Tremlett (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 8 April 2024.
