Full Description
December 2017. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
A small rectilinear enclosure is visible as an earthwork on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015 (S1). It is undated, but like other, similar enclosures identified in the surrounding area (for example, in Suffolk, SHER STN 117), it is likely to be of post-medieval date and was perhaps related to warrening. It may be contemporary with the curvilinear trackway 15m to its west (NHER 54502), although there is no direct evidence of this. As the lidar survey was flown fairly recently, it is likely to still survive as an earthwork.
