Full Description
November 2018. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
A possible mound, perhaps a Bronze Age round barrow, is visible as an earthwork on imagery from a 2015 lidar survey (S1). It could be part of what appears to be a large, dispersed, Bronze Age round barrow cemetery (NHER 62464). Its south side has been destroyed by a forest ride, but the remaining earthworks probably still survive.
S. Tremlett (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 29 November 2018.
