Full Description
May 2010. Norfolk NMP.
A curvilinear earthwork bank is visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs (S1-S3), on land to the east of Spixworth Hill. The cropmark was visible curving southeastwards from TG 2399 1619 to TG 2410 1599, then southwest as far as TG 2407 1589. It is likely that this represents the former line of a medieval to post medieval road.
Three linear ditches are also visible centred on TG 2426 1610.
E. Bales (NMP), May 2010.
