NHER 52090 (Monument record) - Undated curvilinear cropmarks, possible drainage features

The Norfolk Heritage Explorer is a filtered version of the Norfolk HER intended for casual research. Please contact us to consult the full record.

Summary

Undated curvilinear features are visible as grassmarks on aerial photographs within an area of pasture to the south of the river Yare. These features probably relate to former post medieval drainage ditches, which were not visible on the available historic maps of the area (S4), and have therefore been mapped from the available aerial photographs.

Full Description

April 2009. Norfolk NMP.
Undated curvilinear features are visible as grassmarks on aerial photographs (S1)-(S3) centred at TG 2628 0799, within an area of pasture measuring approximately 220m by 265m to the south of the river Yare. These features for the most part appear to run into existing drainage ditches, and probably relate to former post medieval drainage ditches, which were not visible on the available historic maps of the area (S4), and have therefore been mapped from the available aerial photographs.
E. Bales (NMP), 7 April 2009.
