Full Description
February 2011. Norfolk NMP.
The earthworks of possible medieval ridge and furrow and an associated boundary bank located to the north of a medieval moated manorial site (NHER 6088) and a possible area of medieval settlement earthworks (NHER 54565) are visible on aerial photographs (S1). The site is centred on TL 9323 8360. The faint earthworks of low parallel ridges, possible ridge and furrow, may be visible in 1946 (S1). A boundary bank is visible to the north, which possibly originally delineated these agricultural features. Later photography would suggest that these earthworks no longer survive, for example (S2)
