Full Description
April 2014. Lothingland, Lowestoft and North Suffolk Coast and Heaths National Mapping Programme.
The soilmarks and cropmarks of an area of field boundaries of probable medieval to post medieval date are visible on aerial photographs (S1-S6). Only those boundaries appearing to be potentially archaeologically significant have been included in the mapping. Soilmarks of linear boundaries within the northern part of the site have not been included as they likely to be depicted on historical maps. Some elements are included on the OS first edition map (S6). An enclosure or moat in this area (FTN 012) has been reinterpreted as largely being natural or relating to OUL 026.
The site also includes some fragmentary ditches following a different alignment that are likely to be pre-medieval.
