Full description

March 2004. Norfolk NMP
Cropmarks of two small ring ditches, possibly Bronze Age round barrows, are visible on aerial photographs (S1)-(S2). Both comprise narrow single ditches with diameters of 13m and 6m. These ring ditches lie 65m to the northeast of a larger ring ditch (NHER 38542), with others to the west (NHER 38549) and northwest (NHER 8221). It is also possible that the small ring ditch is not a round barrow and could be of a later date.
