Monument record SUE 138 - Three Second War bomb craters
Please read our guidance about the use of Suffolk Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
Three Second World War bomb craters are visible as earthworks on aerial photographs; they are of equal size, suggesting that they were created in the same attack. They are still evident on recent photography, and possibly on lidar, so may still survive as earthworks.
