NHER 8155 (Cropmark and Earthwork record) - Probably medieval to post medieval boundary bank, perhaps a former parish boundary

Low bank up to 50cm high and 10m wide running through plantation parallel to parish boundary with Thetford.
A.J. Lawson (NAU), 11 February 1976.

Not traced beyond road.

This is the original parish boundary of Thetford to Santon, before it was moved to the east.
See excavation report of NHER 5684.

However a careful reading of the report produces confusion as to whether this bank is meant to predate or postdate that to the east that crosses Blood Hill. Barbara Green (NCM) has suggested that the bank crossing the church site accounts for the 'half church' assigned to Thetford in Domesday Book but now says she is not so sure.

The boundary bank described above, which is probably of medieval to post-medieval date and perhaps marks a former parish boundary, probably corresponds to one of the banks that form a group of boundaries which are visible on aerial photographs and lidar imagery, and which have been recorded collectively as NHER 62124. Please see that record and associated mapping for further details, including sources. As well as marking the parish boundary, they may also mark the eastern limit of Santon medieval rabbit warren (NHER 54065). The Monument Polygon for the site has not been amended.
