March 2009. Norfolk NMP.
Assessment of the above mentioned aerial photograph (S1) as part of the NMP project revealed no convincing features of archaeological origin at this location. Traces of possible low earthwork banks were detected on (S2), although the date and significance of these is not certain and may relate to post medieval to modern date features.
