Full Description
May 2014. Lothingland, Lowestoft and North Suffolk Coast and Heaths National Mapping Programme.
An area of possible World War Two practice trenches is visible within a possible barbed wire compound on aerial photographs (S1) on land to the north and south of Lock’s Lane, Wrentham.
Further practice trenches are visible to the south (SHER WRE 040) and a pillbox has been recorded to the east (SHER WRE 039), however the poor quality of the available photographs made it difficult to discern for certain the nature of the possible activity identified here. The outline of the possible compound is visible as a cropmark on later photographs (S2).
