Full Description
July 2014. Lothingland, Lowestoft and North Suffolk Coast and Heaths National Mapping Programme.
An undated linear ditch and two possible banks are visible as earthworks on aerial photographs (S1) on land to the north of High Street, Kessingland. It is possible that the ditch feature relates to a former field boundary although it may relate to a drainage ditch. The possible bank features may in fact be natural undulations and not archaeological in nature, but since they are different in character to the surrounding land, they have been mapped.
