2000-2002. Woodland Earthwork Rapid Identification Survey.
Management Unit J, Site 82:
Parish boundary and track, the latter the north west boundary of Croxton Heath marked on (S4).
See report (S1) for further details.
D. Gurney (NLA) 23 December 2002. Amended by P. Watkins (HES), 12 May 2015.

October 2010. Norfolk NMP.
Several sections of earthwork bank and ditches are visible on aerial photographs (S2-S3) in the region of the Croxton/Stanford parish boundary. They run from TL 8590 8934 to TL 8600 9095, and it is possible that the broad trackway defined by banks is the north-western boundary of Croxton Heath as shown on Faden’s Map of Norfolk (S4), as well as defining the parish boundary between Croxton and Stanford.
