Monument record BRD 323 - Possible braided trackways of unknown date, crossing the boundaries between Elveden, Brandon and Downham High warrens

Please read our .

Summary

A group of possible braided trackways, of unknown date, are visible as earthworks on imagery from a 2015 lidar survey. They appear to cross from the northeast corner of Elveden Warren (SHER ELV 039), across the southeast corner of Brandon Warren (SHER BRD 082), extending a short distance into Downham High Warren (SHER STN 035). As the lidar survey was flown relatively recently, it is likely that the earthworks still survive.
