Full Description
September 2015. Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty National Mapping Programme.
A curvilinear enclosure bank and related ditches are visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs (S1)-(S4) to the west of Oak Hill Sutton. It is possible that this represents a later prehistoric or possibly a medieval to post medieval enclosure, although there is a crag pit recorded in the field to the south on the 1st Edition Ordnance Survey map (S5), suggesting that this feature be related to post medieval extraction.
