This polygon covers a large single field. Originally several small fields, the boundaries were removed in the post war period. The 1st edition OS map of 1854 depicts the enclosures with the name 'Egg Field'. This possible derives from 'Elreheg'- alder enclosure (Smith 1961, 61) or the snowberry shrub which bears large white berries (Field 1972, 69). Legibility of the former landscape is fragmentary as the name is remembered in Egg lane.
