NHER 45228 (Monument record) - Cropmarks of possible late prehistoric or Roman date field boundaries

September 2006. Norfolk NMP.
The cropmarks of possible late prehistoric or Roman date field boundaries are visible on aerial photographs to the north of Burgh Road, Wheatacre (S1-S3). The site is centred on TM 4620 9487. The cropmarks are quite fragmentary and have been grouped together due to their shared alignment, roughly either N-S or E-W, and appearance. Several of the cropmarks are double ditches and are likely to represent trackways, such as at TM 4605 9480 to TM 4626 9489. The date of this cropmarks is not certain, although they do appear to underlie the post medieval field system recorded as NHER 44893. Another group of undated, but pre-post medieval cropmarks are also located within the same area of this site, see NHER 44965. For other undated cropmarks to the north of Burgh Road see NHER 44964.
