Bull Piece is a wooded area that is now part of Hillsborough golf course- indeed some greens and fairways have encroached upon the wooded area. The area is shown as wooded on the 1st edition OS map of 1855 and it appears that the area is a survivor of a larger woodland. The name 'bull piece' indicates an area where a bull was kept and may be an indication of former use as wood pasture. Legibility of the previous landscape is partial due to the surviving name and woodland.
