July 2007. Norfolk NMP.
A cropmark of a ring ditch of Bronze Age date is visible on aerial photographs ((S1)-(S7)). This cropmark is centred on TM 4293 9703 and was previously recorded only as part of a barrow cemetery (NHER 12164). It is slightly sub-circular in plan with a 3.5m wide ditch and an external diameter of 33m. It is likely that it is of Bronze Age date and that it relates to a round barrow. It is surrounded by other ring ditch cropmarks (NHER 49625-8) which together make up the barrow cemetery (NHER 12164).
