Full Description
July 2021. Aylsham and Brampton Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
A possible Bronze Age ring ditch is seen as a cropmark on aerial photographs (S1). The ring ditch may relate to a former Bronze Age round barrow. The ring ditch has an internal diameter of approximately 9.5 meters with the width of the ditches measuring approximately 2 meters. It is also possible that the ring ditch may be a natural feature or the product of modern agriculture. The ring ditch is in close proximity to an area of possible enclosures and boundaries approximately 60m to the south west NHER 36422.
