The name of the fields according to Falmer's 1840 tithe map that have been joined together to make a larger unit and lie to the immediate north of Image Balmer Green originally lay on the left hand side and to the north whereas Crooked Croft lay to the right and filled the southern part of the left hand side nearer the former hamlet. The field may be one of the sites of the old medieval village as there seems to be an awful lot of earthworks suggesting platforms for former houses in this field.
