Full Description
April 2024. Wendling Beck and Fransham Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
Boundaries, including field boundaries, of probable medieval to post medieval date are visible as earthworks and cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1-S2) and visualised lidar data (S3). The visualised lidar data, from a survey flown in 2017, shows that the only a sinuous bank still survives as an earthwork. The features form part of a swathe of earthworks of broadly medieval to post medieval date located along Watery Lane. The surviving (in 2017 at least) bank lies parallel and to the north of Watery Lane.
