This area, whose external boundaries fossilise divisions marked on the 1882 6 inch OS of Derbyshire was depicted by the Ordnance Survey from 1924 until 1948 as allotment gardens. By 1973 it seems the local authorities had taken much of the land out of recreational use, as the large substation now present and a 'depot' are both shown in this area. This depot was replaced by the nursing homes and probable social housing now present on the site by 1985. Fragmentary legibility of earlier field boundaries. Nb. The interior boundaries shown on the 1883 mapping already mentioned are straight sided regular subdivisions of a much larger unit enclosed by the sinuous boundaries at the edges of the present polygon. They produce much larger units than is generally to be expected from either ancient or post-medieval piecemeal enclosure processes. Their proximity to former strip fields in HSY2056, suggests a possible interpretation as the late (post 1700) surveyed or possibly parliamentary enclosure of former common field.
