Full Description
Soilmark of enclosure on (S1).
Seen by A.K. Gregory (NAU) 1976.
E. Rose (NAU)
Now officially in Martham parish.
E. Rose (NAU) 1987.
This feature is also visible on (S2) where it is not D-shaped as drawn by A. Gregory (NAU) on NCM map, but rather two conjoined rectangles with one end open. It might easily be only an infilled pit.
B. Cushion and E. Rose (NLA) 27 May 1994.
April 2005. Norfolk NMP.
The enclosures or pit described above, in fact probably two, partially infilled pits, are visible as slight earthworks and cropmarks on aerial photographs (S3-4), centred at TG 4516 1716 (revised from TG 451 170). They are most likely to be of late post-medieval or modern agricultural origin and there is little evidence that they are archaeologically significant. They consequently have not been mapped.
S. Tremlett (NMP), 19 April 2005.
