April 2020. National Mapping Programme (NMP) Data Clean-Up.
This site was mapped from aerial photographs as part of the Norfolk Coastal Zone NMP, but this record was written more than 10 years later, without access to the original sources.
A group of what are probably three, small earth-covered air raid shelters of Second World War date were mapped, probably as earthworks, from aerial photographs by the Norfolk Coastal Zone NMP. The specific photographs on which the features were visible is not known, but it is likely that they were low-level 1940s vertical RAF photographs held by the Historic England Archive. Whether any element of the site still survives is not known.
