NHER 27329 (Monument record) - Undated possible structures

April 2005. Norfolk NMP.
A dispersed group of possible structures and features, which may have been exposed by storm scour after the 1953 storm floods, is visible on the aerial photographs (S1). The whole site centred on TG 4062 2939 and consists of a cluster of features, centred on TG 4065 2936, and a more isolated exposed feature 70m to the west at TG 4058 2943. The date and origin of these features is uncertain and it is possible that some of the mapped features relate to modern marine debris created during the storm event. However this site is less than a kilometre from the Eccles-on-Sea medieval village and church sites (NHER 8346-7), where medieval and earlier deposits frequently get exposed by the scour. It is also possible given the amount of World War Two defences in the area, many of which were dug into the dunes and sea walls, that these could be structural fragments of previously covered military defences.

The western component consists of an L-shaped dark feature, with some height, although it is hard to discern clearly. The eastern features are even more obscured, partially due to being more buried within the sand. However the two main components of the group are both linear in nature, with little height showing, ranging from 3-6m in length.
