October 2002. Norfolk NMP.
Site originally mapped for NMP by Andy Miller (Suffolk County Council). Subsequent slight alterations and additions to that plot made through use of additional Hunting Survey aerial photographs from 1969 (S4) and re-reference to the Ordnance Survey images from 1970 (S5). Interpretation for NMP remains the same.
By the time BKS images were taken in 1988, it appears that the earthworks may have been ploughed out, though the remains are visible as a cropmark.
