The enclosure of Ecclesfield Common (which Scurfield (1986) believed to have extended within this area in the 17th century) was probably completed in the enclosure award of 1789 following the 1784 Ecclesfield and Greno Wood Parliamentary Act (Dates from English 1985). It is possible that piecemeal intake of the Common (referred to as Ecclesfield Moore by Harrison in 1637 (see Scurfield, 1986) was already underway by the 17th century as there are a number of larger wavy edged enclosures on its fringe by the 1851 OS survey of this area. The present housing within the polygon (which is contemporary of that to the south (separately polygonised to show the boundary between former common ground and former town fields) dates to the years around WWII. Housing is shown along 'The Common' on the 1938 mapping and housing of very similar design appears to the south after the war. No legibility of previous landscape types.
