The name of the field according to East Hoathly's 1839 tithe map that was once part of Halland Park until it reverted back to farmland towards the end of the 18th century. Hartfield Farm lies at the far end and appears to be the third farmhouse of that name replacing Image which lies beyond the crossroads and Image which is located a little further to the north on Lewes Road. The old Nissen Hut may well be a survivor from the days when the area to its right was a nursery before the current farmhouse was built. The field itself has been extended to include Image to the south.
