Full Description
June 2014. Lothingland, Lowestoft and North Suffolk Coast and Heaths National Mapping Programme.
The soilmarks and cropmarks of field boundaries of probable medieval to post medieval date, are visible on aerial photographs (S1-S5). Although it must be noted that a significant number of these boundaries underlie those post medieval boundaries depicted on the Ordnance Survey First Edition map (S6) and the extant field layout, suggesting that there may either be some greater antiquity of these features or significant field changes in the post medieval periods. To either side of the site is a major boundary or track that runs diagonally to the fields. The line of the western one continues to the southwest (outside of the project area) and is shown on the Ordnance Survey First Edition map, runs parallel to the Mutford parish boundary to the south.
