Full Description
March 2017. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
Short lengths of two, parallel linear features (one bank, one ditch) are visible as earthworks on aerial photographs from 1946 (S1). They are undated, but they could plausibly be fragments of former boundaries, perhaps of post-medieval date. They are not visible on imagery from a more recent lidar survey (S2), suggesting that they may have been levelled.
S. Tremlett (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 31 March 2017.
