Full Description
October 2006. Norfolk NMP.
A cropmark of an incomplete ring ditch, possibly relating to a Bronze Age round barrow, is visible on aerial photographs (S1). This cropmark is centred on TG 3132 1282. The northeastern half of a possible ring ditch is visible as a cropmark. Its southwest part is obscured by an area of different soil type. If complete this ring ditch would have a circular plan with a 1.5m wide ditch and an external diameter of 20m. It is possible that this ring ditch is of Bronze Age date and that it relates to a round barrow. A second ring ditch of more unusual form is present further to the south (NHER 29574).
