Map

April 2002. Norfolk NMP.
Cropmarks of linear ditch of probable post medieval date visible on ADAS vertical aerial photography from 1970 (S1) to (S2). Three linear features in alignment recorded, covering a total; distance of 820m. It seems likely that these stretches of ditch are part of the same feature. These vary in length from 130m to 240m and are between 1.5m and 3m in width. This appears to form a boundary of some sort. This ditch appears to cut across (NHER 26823), field boundaries that are thought to date to the late medieval to post medieval.
S. Massey (NMP), 25 April 2002.
