These four garden plots (apparently untended on the 1997 aerial photography) are first depicted on the 1841 OS 'old series' inch to the mile mapping. The 1851 6 inch mapping shows the layout more clearly and records 14 similar surveyed plots lining the approach to Cadeby village along this side of Garden Lane. The hedged boundaries are probably original features and probably date to the Cadeby enclosure award of 1813 (date from English 1985). If the origin of these 'garden allotments' can be traced to the Enclosure Act they would represent rare South Yorkshire survivals of plots presumably allotted to compensate for the loss of common rights in the former open 'Dole Field' depicted at this location by Rodgers in 1811.
