Full Description

June 2012. Norfolk NMP.
Undated cropmark ditches are visible on aerial photographs (S1) to the east of Wash Farm, Old Buckenham. They are centred on TM 0802 9032. It is possible that they represent medieval to post medieval boundary ditches, but are not depicted on the historic maps of the area and may potentially represent earlier boundaries or fragmentary enclosures. Since they are only visible on one set of photographs they have been recorded with a note of caution.
