Full Description

March 2004. Norfolk NMP
Earthworks of two ditches, probably medieval to post medieval drainage ditches are visible on aerial photographs in a field called 'The Carrs' (S1). An L-shaped and a straight ditch are visible in 1964. The field name suggests wet ground and supports their interpretation as drainage ditches. The site had been planted with trees by 1988 and it is not clear if the earthworks survive (S2).
