NHER 68234 (Cropmark and Earthwork record) - Low earthworks of probable post medieval field 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

Probable post medieval field boundaries are visible as low earthworks on visualised lidar data. As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently (2017) it is probable that the earthworks still survive. Some of the features correlate with field boundaries depicted on an early 20th century Ordnance Survey map.

April 2024. Wendling Beck and Fransham Aerial Investigation and Mapping (AIM) Project (volunteer strand).
Probable post medieval field boundaries are visible as low earthworks on visualised lidar data (S1). As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently (2017) it is probable that the earthworks still survive. Some of the features correlate with field boundaries depicted on the early 20th century Ordnance Survey 2nd edition 25 inch map.
