The track, carrying the Hereward Way, runs close to the course of the 'Fen Causeway' Roman Road. According to the English Place Names Society, https://epns.nottingham.ac.uk/, 'Rodham', the name of the farm in the distance, is a modern spelling of 'roddon' - a Fen term for the raised bed of a former watercourse. These were often used in the construction of the Fen Causeway https://www.heritage.norfolk.gov.uk/record-details?MNF2796-Fen-Causeway-Roman-road.
