NHER 68069 (Cropmark and Earthwork record) - Earthworks of possible medieval to post medieval field or property boundaries

The Norfolk Heritage Explorer is a filtered version of the Norfolk HER intended for casual research. Please contact us to consult the full record.

Summary

Possible medieval to post medieval field or property boundaries are visible as earthworks on visualised lidar data. As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently (2017) it is probable that the earthworks still survive. It is possible that one or both of the banks is instead the remains of a road or track.

Full Description

March 2024. Wendling Beck and Fransham Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project.
Possible medieval to post medieval field or property boundaries are visible as earthworks on visualised lidar data (S1). As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently (2017) it is probable that the earthworks still survive. It is possible that one or both of the banks is instead the remains of a road or track. At the same time, the possibility that they are of modern origin can also not be discounted.
