Full Description

August 2014. Lothingland, Lowestoft and North Suffolk Coast and Heaths National Mapping Programme.
Earthworks of probable post medieval drainage ditches are visible on aerial photographs (S1-S2) in the vicinity of Hall Farm, Gisleham. There is a small possibility that they relate to earlier earthworks associated with the Hall and they are not visible on Ordnance Survey mapping, and have therefore been mapped.
