Abstract:
Investigations had found that although there was evidence for many ring-fence farms dating back to the medieval period, open fields had played a more important part in the evolution of the agricultural landscape in Cumberland than was previously believed. The author draws on manuscript evidence, significant field names and the survival of shared strips in the late 19th century to map townships where open field cultivation was present in the 16th century, a time when open fields had reached their greatest extent. The three main types of open field arrangements in the county are discussed. LD
