Full description

August 2004. Norfolk NMP.
A cropmark of an undated possible sub oval ring ditch is visible on aerial photographs (S1). It measures between 13m and 16m in diameter and is centred on TG35642942. The presence of other ring ditches interpreted as possible Bronze Age round barrows (NHER 38703, 38704), suggests that this ring ditch could also be a round barrow of the similar date. See also surrounding cropmarks (NHER 38710).
(S1).
J. Albone (NMP), 11 August 2004.
