NHER 53620 (Cropmark and Earthwork record) - Possible linear trackway of unknown date

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

An undated possible trackway is visible on aerial photographs on land to the north east of Lower Farm, Horsham St Faith and Newton St Faith. These features are of dubious archaeological origin, however, since they run parallel to the field edge, and may be agricultural in nature, or perhaps relate to drainage ditches.

Full Description

June 2010. Norfolk NMP.
An undated possible trackway is visible as soilmarks and cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1-S5) on land to the north-east of Lower Farm, Horsham St Faith and Newton St Faith.
The trackway consists of three linear ditches, running from TG 2132 1568 to TG 2169 1585. These features are of dubious archaeological origin, however, since they run parallel to the field edge, and may be agricultural in nature, or perhaps relate to drainage ditches.
E. Bales (NMP), June 2010.
