The name of the field according to Wilmington's 1838 tithe map viewed from Thornwell Road. The roundabouts part of the name derives from a description of an area of land that is usually surrounded by various features on all sides, in this case a small stream, road and other fields. A layer of chalk has been laid on the ground at the field entrance to make a harder surface particularly as this meadow lies next to a small stream.
