| Abstract: |
The paper discusses the rediscovered 1594 map of Little Easton, Tilty and Broxted which sheds light on the evolution of settlement and field patterns on the Essex Till from the thirteenth to sixteenth centuries; first, in confirming the ubiquity of former strip-farming in small common-fields based on hamlets, which were fast disappearing when the first estate maps were being made. Secondly, the map shows the concentration of demesne arable into large, often very large fields, which were sub-divided into smaller units from the fourteenth century onwards. The paper looks in detail at the demesne and two parks of Little Easton. |
