Full Description
April 2007. Norfolk NMP
Cropmarks of two parallel linear ditches, probably a medieval to post medieval field boundary or road, are visible on aerial photographs (S1). These cropmarks are centred on TG 4190 0800. Two parallel linear ditch cropmarks are present on a roughly northwest to southeast alignment. Their alignment appears to continue that of the road to the northwest and it is possible that they define a trackway or road. However, the narrow spacing of the ditches (only 5.5m) perhaps makes it more likely that they represent a double-ditched field boundary.
