NHER 53503 (Monument record) - Cropmarks of undated linear ditches

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

Several undated curvilinear ditch features are visible as grassmarks on aerial photographs (S1-S10) in an area of several prehistoric finds (NHER 49040, 14537, 15874, 8095, 21640) and 270m to the south of an alleged Bronze Age round barrow (NHER 8100). These features may in fact be caused by routes across the area of ground, and may therefore not be archaeological in nature, but they have been mapped due to the presence of finds in the vicinity.
