Map

March 2005. Norfolk NMP.
A trackway is visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs (S1), from TG 5060 1574 to TG 5065 1557. It is undated but its orientation, parallel with field boundaries depicted on Ormesby Tithe Map (S2), suggests that it may be post-medieval. At the same time, the possibility that it originated in an earlier period cannot be ruled out.
S. Tremlett (NMP), 16 March 2005.
