Full Description

September 2015. Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty National Mapping Programme.
A possible Bronze Age oval barrow is visible as an earthwork on aerial photographs, south of Longwalk Plantation, Sutton. It is only visible on Lidar imagery (S1) since it is within an area of tree cover and vegetation, and is not depicted on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map (S2), and has therefore been recorded with a note of caution since it may relate to an area of vegetation or clearance.
E. Ford (Norfolk Historic Environment Service), 17th September 2015.
