NHER 62493 (Cropmark and Earthwork record) - Possible mound with ditch, perhaps a Bronze Age round barrow

The Norfolk Heritage Explorer is a filtered version of the Norfolk HER intended for casual research. Please contact us to consult the full record.

Summary

A possible mound with an external ring ditch, perhaps a Bronze Age round barrow, seen in lidar data and on aerial photographs. As the feature is seen on the lidar data it is most likely that it still survives as a low earthwork and may be related to the Bronze Age barrow to the north (NHER 4814) and trackways to the west (NHER 62491 and NHER 62492).
