Full Description
January 2014. Lothingland, Lowestoft and North Suffolk Coast and Heaths National Mapping Programme.
The cropmarks of group of rectilinear enclosures and associated trackways of unknown, but probably later prehistoric date, are visible on aerial photographs (S1-S3). The site is centred on TM 5097 9992. Some of these cropmarks were previously recorded under LUD 016. The site would appear to underlie the extensive trackways, fields and enclosures within this area (LUD 016), which although undated, may be Roman in origin.
