Cropmarks of ditched field boundaries and trackways, of probably post-medieval and possibly late prehistoric date, can be seen to the south-east of Bucklesham village, Bucklesham parish, centred on circa TM248411. One very straight cropmark at TM24814110 meets and matches the north-west to south-east layout of the surrounding post-medieval field boundaries and is almost certainly post-medieval in date. The remaining cropmarks in this group are less regular in layout and on a more north-east to south-west alignment. The prominent trackways on this axis appear to line up with neighbouring cropmark complexes to the south and west (see LVT 059 and BUC 015) but have fewer obvious connections with the group to the north. Although this group, including ring ditch BUC 028, was previously included in this record, it has now been noted in the separate record, BUC 075.
