Monument record STN 171 - Undated, probably post medieval boundaries and tracks
Please read our guidance about the use of Suffolk Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
A group of irregular, undated, but probably post medieval boundaries and tracks are visible as earthworks on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015. Some appear to have a relationship with the warren boundary to their west (STN 035), and the possible warren boundary to their south (STN 188). They are all undated, but while more than one phase of activity may be represented, a post medieval date seems probable for most of the features.

Full Description
February 2018. 'Brecks from Above' and Breckland National Mapping Programme.
A group of irregular, undated, but probably post medieval boundaries and tracks are visible as earthworks on imagery from a lidar survey flown in 2015 (S1). Some appear to have a relationship with the warren boundary to their west (STN 035), and the possible warren boundary to their south (STN 188). They are all undated, but while more than one phase of activity may be represented, a post medieval date seems probable for most of the features.
