These fields are depicted on the 1st edition OS map of 1854. There has been minimal boundary loss since then. The two southernmost fields are named as 'Broad Oak' and 'Far Broad Oak' on a plan of 1841. The adjacent field on the parish border contains brickyards in the centre. The field boundaries on the 1st edition OS map line up with those across the turnpike road suggesting the enclosures pre-date the turnpike. The turnpike was opened in 1766. The fields can be seen to have once belonged to a larger field system, probably enclosed from open fields. Legibility of the former landscape, though, is invisible.
