Housing estate built within the field boundaries of an area of surveyed enclosure which was later used as allotment gardens. The continuation of these boundaries gives partial legibility of this former landscape. This land was enclosed from open commons. The nearby Staincross commons survived as quite a large unenclosed area until the late 18th, early 19th century. This area of land was enclosed by 1775 and was marked as such on Jefferys' map of the area.
