Full Description
May 2007. Norfolk NMP.
The cropmarks of a pair of ditches of unknown date are visible on aerial photographs to the south of Hemblington Hall (S1). The site is centred on TG 3506 1105.
The ditches are parallel and are located 18m apart. This great distance between the two ditches would suggest that they are not associated with a trackway feature. It is possible that these ditched are associated with the large area of fragmentary and dispersed field boundaries to the immediate east (NHER 44945), which are also undated, but are interpreted as being of possible late prehistoric to Roman date. Although this pair of ditches appear to follow a slightly different alignment to the majority of the cropmarks recorded under NHER 49445.
