Full Description
'White cropmark 1974'. Written on NCM map.
E. Rose (NCM).
October 2021. Aylsham and Brampton Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
The cropmarks of an undated possible bank feature can be seen on aerial photographs (S1). The feature consists of a possible elongated U-shaped bank and is only visible on one set of aerial photographs consulted by the project (S1). The features origins are unclear, and it is possible that the feature is natural in origin or related to modern agricultural activities. If the feature is archaeological in origin, the feature may have related to activity associated with the former railway line approximately 60m to the south. The feature has been mapped by extent and the monument polygon has been amended.
J. Powell (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 27 October 2021.
