Full Description
April 2012. Norfolk NMP.
An area of possible earthworks of unknown date and significance are visible on aerial photographs (S1) within an area of grassland within an early medieval deer park (NHER 52767). The site is centred on TM 1067 9906. These earthworks, which may well relate to post medieval drainage and other features of archaeological non-significance, were not mapped due to uncertainty over their origin. Assessment of later aerial photographs, for example (S2) revealed no additional traces of anything convincingly archaeological. However due to the potential preservation of earthworks pre-dating the establishment of the deer park, and the excavated remains of an Iron Age settlement to the immediate east of the site (NHER 25887), a note has been made of their presence.
