NHER 53678 (Monument record) - Cropmark of undated field boundaries and trackways

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

The cropmarks of fragmentary ditches, field boundaries and trackways of unknown date are visible on aerial photographs to either side of Honingham Lane, Ringland. The site consists of fragmentary field boundaries and trackways, representing more than one phase of activity, and the dates of which are unknown. Finds in the area include prehistoric lithics (NHER 18265 & 23773), although it is uncertain whether this reflects the date of any of the cropmarks. A number of linear ditch-like cropmarks were omitted from the mapping due to the likelihood that they related to non-archaeological features. Cropmarks of a natural and geological origin were extremely prevalent in this area.
