It is likely that this this site is a demolished post mill as indicated by the central cross in the middle of the circular cropmark shown on 2005 Google Earth images.

November 2012. Norfolk NMP.
Cropmarks of the post medieval windmill mound were clearly visible on aerial photographs (S3) and have been mapped as the centroid of the site has altered from TL 9828 9302 to TL 9828 9299. The windmill mound itself measures 20m in diameter and the diagnostic central cross is clearly visible.
A second possible mound, previously recorded as NHER 9029, has been mapped as part of NHER 57469.
