Playing fields associated with Athelstan primary school. They are first depicted on the 1953 OS map. Prior to its current use, it was rural in character with the fields on the 1st edition OS map displaying reverse s curve boundaries. This suggests that the area was once enclosed in strips from open fields. The line of a field boundary depicted on the 1st edition OS map, demarcating a small area of woodland in the northwest of the polygon, is preserved by a footpath. Legibility is fragmentary due to this.
