Whats this track

Can anyone identify what purpose this track was used for ?
I am researching a rumour that a small section of rail track was laid around the mid 1800`s to off load barges on the River Stour in Suffolk and link up with a local Manor some 500yds away
Although it was only a rumour, I subsequently found hidden in hedge two lengths of track with a head width of 2"
There are holes on the base spaced 3ft apart presumably for fixing.
I can find no reference to 2" track via a Google search
Could this be the track I am looking for ?
