Map

August 2004. Norfolk NMP.
Cropmarks of ditches, possibly Iron Age to Roman field boundaries, are visible on aerial photographs (S1). These cropmarks are centred on TG 3685 2920. A field boundary ditch extends for 94m on a northnorthwest to southsoutheast alignment between TG 3683 2923 and TG 3686 2914. A second ditch extends for 37m, perpendicular to the first on its western side. The alignment of these ditches is similar to that of a possible Iron Age to Roman farmstead or enclosures 420m to the east (NHER 38726). However, their association with a probable medieval to post medieval field system (NHER 38599), further to the southeast cannot be ruled out.
