Full Description
2002: rapid survey identified low linear SE-NW bank, circa 4m wide & 20cm high. NW half survives as pine belt (early C19th?), SE (surveyed) half presumably originally continuation of belt, probably marking field boundary (S1).
Formerly numbered (in error - duplicate) as IKL 137.
2015: Rapid earthwork survey recorded this bank. The western most section of this bank is still shown on OS maps, but the easternmost section is not. This lattter is a barely visible gentle south-facing scarp of c.0.3m high on the cut grass area noted above. This eastern section is not shown on the early 19th century maps and is probably a modern feature (S1).
June 2019. Breckland National Mapping Programme.
A probable post medieval boundary bank is seen as an earthwork on visualised lidar data (S2). The bank is fragmented and aligned approximately north west – south east. The bank most likely relates to a boundary mapped on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map and is in close proximity to further boundary banks to the south west and west.
