The name of the field according to the 1839 tithe map. Formerly part of The Broyle, a medieval deer park and common, which was enclosed in 1767. The hedge and trees on the right mark the course of The Broyle, the B2192, whilst those in the distance mark its western border. Since the last century the southern end of the large field, out of shot to the left, has been subdivided into smaller plots.
