Full description

March 2009. Norfolk NMP.
A World War Two anti-tank ditch and associated defences are visible as earthworks and structures on aerial photos (S1)-(S27). The defence dates from the early part of World War Two, being constructed during June, July and August of 1940 (S28). The defences were made up of a mixture of a steeply profiled ditch, with associated bank, and concrete block anti-tank obstacles, road and rail blocks. Pillboxes and spigot mortar emplacements were situated at strategic points along the route (see below). The ditch appears to have had at least one vertical side, and measured approximately 4.5m in width (S30, p. 87). It stretches for at least 6.5 km around the northeast of the city of Norwich through the TG 21SE and TG 20NE mapsheets, from TG 2426 1199 to TG 2760 0816, where it meets the river Yare, following field boundaries as much as possible.

For the most part, the defensive line is formed by the anti-tank ditch, with associated intermittent bank. In places, other features are employed in place of, or as well as the ditch. Double lines of anti-tank cubes were employed in Sprowston, between TG 2449 1194 and TG 2464 1194 to cross the back gardens of a more built-up area, and between TG 2467 1181 and TG 2482 1168, north of which a stretch of infilled ditch is visible in 1947 (S18). At present it is unclear why this section of ditch was filled in; further mapping in quarter sheet TG 21SW, and the potential availability of earlier photographs for this area, may provide further information. Shorter breaks in the line of the ditch (for example at TG 2444 1195, TG 2506 1176, TG 2537 1152 and TG 2550 1122) allowed access to fields and were protected by further anti-tank cubes.
In the southeast of mapsheet TG21SE, in the parish of Thorpe St Andrew, between TG 2731 0999 and TG 2733 0994 and TG2733 0987 and TG2734 0978, the anti-tank ditch appears to have been filled in in two places by 1942 (S1), where disturbed soil is visible. It may also be possible that the ditch was never dug here, as anti tank cubes and anti-tank defences in the form of steel pins or rails were in position here by 1945 (S5), (S7) (S19) and (S23), suggesting that the farm track was in frequent use. The filling in of the anti-tank ditch in 1945 (S5) is very typical of what was going on up and down the country at that time (Roger J. C. Thomas pers. comm.). The mixture of the use of a ditch, concrete obstacles, and steel rails is not unusual, neither is the fact that the anti-tank ditch isn't continuous; however, being able to see the cubes and posts so clearly on a photograph is (Roger J. C. Thomas pers. comm.) (S5). This section is visible as a filled in ditch by 1951 (S24). To the south, as the ditch turns to the east and meets the Norwich to Cromer railway line, an additional section of ditch is visible (S10) stretching from TG 2750 0901 to TG 2745 0896, perhaps as an extra line of defence for this strategic section.

Several further stretches of anti-tank cubes were visible, as a supplement to the ditch, situated at intervals from TG2733 0985 to TG 2760 0816, where the defences met the river Yare (NHER 20338, 32535-6), which suggests that this south-eastern section was considered especially vulnerable, perhaps due to the proximity of the two main rail lines, Norwich to Yarmouth and Norwich to Cromer. There were also several anti-tank defences in place at field entrances, consisting of anti-tank blocks, and concrete settings for steel pins and rails. These were visible in Thorpe St Andrew at TG 2733 0986, TG 2742 0965, TG 2736 0958 and TG 2739 0946 (S5) (at the latter two points anti tank cubes were recorded as still extant in 1993 (NHER 32532) (S31)), TG 2743 0919, TG 2744 0907 (S5), TG 2767 0903 and TG 2779 0903 (S7).
As well as the stretches of anti-tank cubes, other defensive structures were visible along the line of the ditch. A probable type 24 pillbox was located at TG 2746 1009 (NHER 51900) to the east of Pound Lane on (S1) and (S19). Associated defences positioned along the line of the anti-tank ditch include Type 24 pillboxes (NHER 51895 (S2), (S6) (S14) and (S18) NHER 51899 (S4), (S6), (S9) and (S18), NHER 51900 (S1) and (S19) and NHER 51901 (S2) and (S18)) spigot mortar emplacements and/or weapons pits (NHER 51894 (S18), NHER 51897 (S13), NHER 51898 (S6) and NHER 51967 (S7)), a heavy machine gun emplacement (NHER 51896) (S13) and (S16), road blocks (NHER 51906) (S13) and (S16) and rail blocks (NHER 51968 and NHER 51969 (S7, S15 and S21 )).

Portions of the ditch and anti-tank cubes appear to have survived in some form into the post-war period, although largely not beyond 1947 (S14)- (S17). As has already been described, other sections of the ditch were filled in during the war, although these were usually replaced by lines of surface defences, such as anti-tank cubes or road blocks. The lines of anti tank cubes visible to the south of the railway line were still extant in 1961 and 1964 (S25) and (S27). Anti tank blocks between the two railway lines were also still visible in 1964 (S26). As stated above, some sections of anti-tank cubes were recorded as still surviving in 1993 (NHER 20338, 32532 and 32535-6).

April 2010. Norfolk NMP.
The World War Two anti-tank ditch and associated defences is visible on aerial photographs continuing west through map sheet TG21SW, from TG 2426 1199 to TG 1975 1110 (S32-S61). The anti tank ditch had been previously recorded as an anti-glider trench (NHER 40841) where it passes through Catton Hall Park (S38).
The tank ditch is visible filled in in places by 1947 (S54, S56), but several sections of anti tank cubes and road blocks are still extant during this period (S54).
There are at least four pillboxes visible along this stretch of the anti-tank ditch (S33, S34, S40, S52) and clearly incorporated with its defences, at least one of which is demolished by 1951 (S59) whilst the western most pillbox is still extant during this period (S60). It is likely that this is the pillbox recorded as NHER 32546.
There are also at least three spigot mortar emplacements visible on this stretch of the ditch, along with at least eleven road blocks, many of which have been set up within residential streets, between stretches of anti-tank cubes.

July 2010. Norfolk NMP.
The World War Two anti-tank ditch and associated defences is visible on aerial photographs continuing north-south through map sheet TG10NE, from TG 1927 0996 to TG 1876 0801, where it joins the River Yare (S62-S77).
It is visible as a ditch and bank as far as TG 1917 0965, where the defences change to anti tank cubes where they are visible between houses.
The tank ditch is visible filled in in places by 1946 (S70, S72-74), but several sections of anti tank cubes and road blocks are still extant during this period (S74). There is also evidence of small piles of material, possibly dispersed storage for military purposes, although this is unclear, along Chapel Break Road and East Dereham Road, leading away from the city (S70).
Two possible pillboxes are visible along this stretch of the anti-tank ditch, at TG 1873 0937 and TG 1891 0823 (S68-69), and clearly incorporated with its defences, although they are not entirely clear, as they are partially obscured by vegetation on the available photographs. There may also be at least three further possible pillboxes visible along Long Lane, Bawburgh (S72), situated at approximately TG 1597 0997, TG 1608 0999 and TG 1663 1002, although the latter of these particularly is uncertain, and all may in fact be vegetation as they did not appear to be visible in April 1946.
There are also at least five road blocks visible on this stretch of the ditch, many of which have been set up between stretches of anti-tank cubes.

September 2010. Norfolk NMP.
The World War Two anti-tank ditch and associated defences is visible on aerial photographs (S78-S80) as it crosses the southeastern corner of map sheet TG11SE, from the River Wensum at TG 1 1981 1048 to TG 1918 0966, where it joins the previously recorded section in TG10NE, see above entry.
A type 24 pillbox is incorporated into the defence at TG 1934 1010, but has been removed by 1951 (S81). As with the other sections recorded it is visible as a broad and steep-sided ditch, flanked by one or two banks. Any significant breaks in the ditches are protected by anti-tank cubes forming barriers and road blocks. The southern section of the ditch has been filled in as earlier as September 1945, and the site is being redeveloped into housing.
A drainage channel to the north of this section of anti-tank ditch, running from TG 1980 1050 to TG 1944 1073, has evidence of a possible bank of upcast material alongside the channel in 1942 (S63). This may have formed part of the defensive system as it would have partially bridged the gap betweent this section and the one to the north, that appears to terminate at the river bank at Hellesdon. However it was not completely apparent whether this upcast related to World War Two defences or relatively recent maintenance of the channel. A similar bank of upcast obviously related to maintenance is visible along this line on later aerial photographs, suggesting that this may also be the case in the 1940s.

April 2012.
Site visit conducted by C. Kolonko (HES), 06 April 2012. Line of Anti-Tank Blocks still present at TG 275 087. Two blocks have been moved out of situ and used to block access to the field within which the line of Anti-Tank Blocks is situated.

May 2012.
Photographic Survey conducted by C. Kolonko (HES), 13 May 2012. Recorded possible earthwork remains of the Anti-Tank Ditch at TG 273 096, TG 274 100 and TG 274 095. Also recorded an original Barbed Wire metal picket in situ at TG 274 095 and metal revetment posts at TG274100.

May 2015. Walkover Survey.
Detailed walkover survey of Royal Norwich Golf Club (Hellesdon, approximate centre TG 2037 1136), undertaken ahead of its proposed redevelopment.
There appear to be few surviving traces of this section of the ditch, which was presumably removed by subsequent landscape to repair the golf course (which was established prior to the war).
At TG 2031 1132 a broad linear spread of slightly parched grass appeared to mark the course of the backfilled ditch. It was though only towards the western edge of the site, just before the woodland belt at the edge of the golf course that the first possible physical trace of the ditch could be observed; with a slight suggestion of a bank and linear dip possibly marking its route. To the west of this point it continued as a much more definite earthwork. It was observed that a line of anti-tank rails previously recorded as running approximately 40m to the south (NHER 32490) were actually adjacent to this section of the ditch.
See (S82) for further details.

March-May 2015. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of Royal Norwich Golf Club (Hellesdon, approximate centre TG 2037 1136) undertaken ahead of its proposed redevelopment.
This survey identified two sections of the anti-tank ditch, both of which were represented by broad, discontinuous linear bands of magnetic disturbance. One was located on the eastern side of Drayton High Road between TG 2045 1143 and TG 2067 1156 ( NHER 64574) and the other to the west of Drayton High Road at TG 2008 1127 (NHER 64575).
See report (S83) and NHERs 64574 and 64575 for further details.

November 2017. Trial Trenching.
Evaluation of part of Royal Norwich Golf Club (Hellesdon, approximate centre TG 2037 1136) ahead of its proposed redevelopment.
This investigation of an area to the east of the Drayton High Road saw the excavation of two trenches across the north-east to south-west aligned section of anti-tank ditch at TG 2047 1145. A machine-excavated slot in one trench demonstrated that this feature was 5.9m wide, 1.85m and backfilled with material that contained a range of contemporary debris, including picket posts with lengths of barbed wire attached and pieces of wire cable. In the second trench it also contained several large blocks of concrete and metal reinforcing bars.
See report (S84) and NHER 64574 for further details.
P. Watkins (HES), 30 January 2021.

November 2018. Geophysical Survey.
Magnetometer survey of land to south of Salhouse Road.
This survey identfied a fragmentary linear anomaly that corresponds with the north-west to south-east section of anti-tank ditch recorded between TG 2722 1119 and TG 2732 1107.
See report (S85) and NHER 65142 for further details.
