These fields, falling into three distinct groupings, Haids Closes, Birchwood Closes and Austwood Closes have a history that is difficult to tease out. They are shown as surveyed enclosures (probably parliamentary) on the 1st edition OS map of 1854. Situated at the edge of the parish the land was probably marginal and held in common. The 1766 Braithwell enclosure enclosed two common pastures and Braithwell Green. In the latter half of the 20th century the removal of these field boundaries have created the larger agglomerated fields. Legibility of the enclosed landscape is fragmentary as some of the surveyed field boundaries remain.
