Full description

September 2005. Norfolk NMP.
A cropmark of a linear ditch, possible a medieval to post medieval field boundary, is visible on aerial photographs (S1) and (S2). This cropmark is centred on TG 4783 1403. It extends for 190m on a roughly northwest to southeast alignment between TG 4776 1409 to TG 4790 1396. Although its alignment does not fully match that of the surviving post medieval field pattern, it is likely that this is a field boundary of medieval to post medieval date.
