Full Description
August 2020. Breckland National Mapping Programme.
A low, broad earthwork bank, visible on visualised lidar data (S1), may be the remains of a boundary or road, of probably medieval and/or post medieval date. The earthworks are less prominent but otherwise comparable to those recorded to the south (NHER 63264), which also probably relate to a former road. They could instead be a very spread boundary bank. As the lidar was flown relatively recently (2015), it is probable that the earthworks still survive.
