Linear cropmark.

June 2006. Norfolk NMP
Cropmarks of undated linear and curvilinear ditches are visible on aerial photographs (S1). These cropmarks are centred on TM 3370 99075. A group of seven sections of ditch cropmark are present. These have a range of different alignments, none of which correspond to the field boundaries marked on the 1812 Ditchingham enclosure map (S2). Although it is likely that some of these cropmarks relate to field boundaries, their date is unknown.
