Full Description
December 2023. Wendling Beck and Fransham Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
Probable medieval to post medieval boundaries and a possible enclosure are seen as earthworks on recent (2017) visualised lidar data (S1). The features most likely relate to medieval settlement. However, a post medieval date for the features is also possible. As the lidar survey was flown in 2017, it is likely that the features still survive as very low earthworks.
