June 2010. Norfolk NMP.
The earthworks described above are visible on aerial photographs (S3)-(S7), centred at TG 1419 0574. In many instances it is extremely difficult to distinguish features of potential archaeological significance from the drainage-related features that surround them. The resulting NMP mapping is selective, but may still encompass features that wholly or partly relate to drainage.
The enclosures described above are probably those visible at TG 1424 0576, one of which (the easternmost) is rectangular with a slightly moat-like appearance, the other seeming to surround a roughly square platform. These, together with the pottery recovered from the site are suggestive of settlement or at least enclosure (for stock? wildfowl?). Other features mapped by the NMP as potentially significant include further possible enclosures to the north and south, and a hollow way/trackway, perhaps causewayed at its southern end, and a second, curvilinear causeway leading away to the east.
