Fields that developed after the clearance of Smithy Wood which was still shown on 1854 maps. There is fragmentary legibility of the woodland as some of the woods boundaries remain. A small concentration of terraced houses were built on by 1893 maps were this polygon runs along Wakefield road. These would have been to house miners at East Gawber Hall Colliery and have since been demolished. The place name Smithy wood is likely to refer to iron working activities in the area. The monks of Monk Bretton are known to have mined ironstone in their neighbourhood (Hey 1979, 99) and there are references in the late 16th and early 17th century of smithies at Monk Bretton (ibid, 118).
