Full Description
May 2023. Aylsham and Brampton Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
A possible ring ditch or small curvilinear enclosure of unknown date is visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1). The cropmarks could feasibly mark the site of a Bronze Age round barrow, or even a small Neolithic long or oval barrow, but alternative interpretations are equally plausible. The cropmarks are very faint and fragmentary, and their archaeological significance is uncertain.
