This area approximates to the outline of 'Kiveton Park' as depicted by Jefferys in 1775. Jefferys depicts a formal ornamental parkland with a substantial avenue of trees leading east from the residence of the 'Duke of Leeds'. Engravings of this parkland exist in Badeslade and Rocque's 1739 4th volume of Vitruvius Brittanicus (Desmond 1984, 168). Earliest known reference is via Saxton's 1610 map of the West Riding (Hey 1979, 81-82) although the fieldname 'the Palles' (meaning 'palisade' taken from a Chantry Survey of 1546 (Smith 1961, 157) may refer to a park pale, such as commonly surrounded a medieval deer park. The stately home built here by the Earl of Leeds was demolished in 1811 (Hunter 1828, 144). Present Kiveton Hall is a listed early19th century replacement. Hall Farm survives and is listed as an in part 17th century structure. By 1891 the park had been enclosed by surveyed boundaries. These boundaries were lost to produce the present massive units between 1981 and 1999. Fragmentary legibility of the park remains only in the form of a fairly well preserved stone wall around the former park boundary.
