Full Description
March 2018. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
The possible earthworks (since levelled) of a sub-rectangular mound may be visible on historical aerial photographs (S1), although this is not certain and the mound cannot clearly be discerned on other aerial photographs from the 1940s. It is feasible that the mound relates to the platform of one or more former buildings, potentially of medieval to post medieval date. However this is uncertain and it may instead relate to more recent activity. There is no clear evidence of it relating to the Second World War, for example relating to an earth-covered air raid shelter.
