Part of a larger housing estate, this polygon consists of detached housing built to a cul-de-sac design. Formerly used for sand and gravel extraction which is depicted from the mid 19th century onwards. Prior to this, the site was occupied by fields with straight and regular edges indicative of parliamentary enclosure. It formed part of Bessacarr Low Field which was probably farmed as an open field prior to enclosure in 1779 by the 'Cantley, Branton, Bessacarr and (High) Ellers' award. Roman pottery kilns were excavated ahead of the construction of the housing estate and form an important regional group. Legibility of the former landscape is invisible.
