Modern private housing estate made up of detached houses. Built on an area of former piecemeal enclosure which was probably enclosed from the medieval open fields around the settlement at Tankersley. Twelve lands Plantation and Tankersley (formerly Town Close) Plantation are likely to have been townfields (Hey 1975, 111). Following patterns in the old roads this area was probably part of the same field. There is fragmentary legibility of these past landscapes because the housing fits within some former field boundaries but many have been overwritten by the housing.
