Full Description
June 2007. Norfolk NMP
Cropmarks of a multiple ditched curvilinear enclosure are visible on aerial photographs (S1). These cropmarks are centred on TG 3398 0212. The enclosure has a sub-rectangular curvilinear plan defined by at least two, and probably three, ditches. It is cut at its northern end by the modern line of Spong Lane and has visible external dimensions of 44m by 35m. Linear ditches appear to extend to its south and east, but these may not be directly associated with it. The date and function of this enclosure is unknown, but it is possible that relates to medieval settlement activity (NHER 49517) around St Peter’s church (NHER 10336).
