Looking over a gate in Church Street across the meadow towards Sherlands. The gridline cuts across the left hand corner of the field. This is some of what remains of the land which was communally farmed before 1066 in the centre of the village and is the reason for the triangular shape of the original community. Much of the land has now been built over with housing.
