The name of the field according to the 1844 tithe map. Being on the outskirts of Hailsham and backed onto by housing estates the field has been taken out of agricultural use and lost to scrub though a horse was wandering about here. Judging by the discarded rubbish and cycle tracks in the mud I'd imagine the local youth use it quite regularly.
