Full Description
March 2025. Wendling Beck and Fransham Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
Probable post medieval field boundaries are visible as low earthworks on visualised lidar data, from a survey flown in 2017 (S1). Other, similar features visible in the same field on the same source correspond with field boundaries depicted on 19th-century maps, such as the Ordnance Survey 1st edition 6 inch map (S2) and are not included in the record. As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently, it is likely that any earthworks still survive.

May 2020-January 2021. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of site on proposed route of onshore cable for Norfolk Vanguard and Boreas Offshore Wind Farms.
Although the area examined coincided with the north-to-south aligned earthwork recorded at TF 9391 1194 there was no evidence for associated sub-surface remains.
