Full Description

January 2018. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
A possible small rectilinear enclosure, perhaps of post medieval date and related to warrening, is visible as an earthwork on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015 (S1). Only three sides are visible; the southeastern side may have been truncated by the modern track to its east, or it could once have abutted a bank marking the parish and county boundary which the track follows. The enclosure is not particularly clear, and the archaeological significance of the feature is uncertain.
S. Tremlett (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 13th January 2018.
