Map

September 2004. Norfolk NMP.
Earthworks and parchmarks of a possible post medieval water meadow are visible on aerial photographs (S1). This site is centred around TG30793014. A group of roughly parallel banks and ditches are arranged perpendicular to a further curving bank. It is possible that these relate to a post medieval water meadow. The field was called 'Great Meadow' on the 1827 Witton enclosure map (S2).
