Description
In March 2008, the Breckland Society was awarded a grant by English Heritage to research the archaeological archival evidence of the managed rabbit warrens of the Norfolk and Suffolk Brecks. Fieldwork and soite visits, archival research and oral history were carried out. Volunteers were trained. Fieldwork began in autumn, winter 2008 and early spring 2009. The teams of volunteers traced the perimeter boundaries of their allocated warrens, recording the condition, height and width of visible banks as well as searching for any evidence of internal banks and lodge sites. Field work forms were completed and photographic evidence (S1).
