Full Description
July 2017. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
A sub-rectangular enclosure of unknown date is visible as earthworks on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015 (S1). It may be a post medieval plantation boundary, but is not shown on the consulted historical Ordnance Survey maps (such as S2). This suggests that unlike many of the plantation boundaries visible in the area (SHER STN 054, 490m to the southwest, for example), it pre-dates the late 19th century.
S. Tremlett (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 7th July 2017.
