Monument record STT 077 - Site of undated, possibly prehistoric, field system
Please read our guidance about the use of Suffolk Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
Part of a field system of unknown date is visible as cropmarks on aerial photographs. It appears to be a continuation of more extensive areas of field system visible to the south (STT 016, STT 065), for which a Bronze Age or later prehistoric date has been suggested. The character of the field system recorded here would support this interpretation.
