Country house within a small area of parkland which is marked as such on 1854 OS maps. The date of origin of the house is unknown but there is a reference to Haigh Hall in the historic parish of Darton in a 1704 lease (Sheffield Archives Ref - SpSt/221/4-5). Owned by the Cotton family who were iron masters (Listed Building Ref: 334244). The landscape prior to the parkland was probably assarted woodland. There are sinuous field boundaries in the area and large areas of ancient woodland nearby. There is partial legibility of the assarts as sinuous field boundaries remain.
