The village of Kington St Michael acquired this site for recreation in the 1980s. It was levelled then and re-levelled in 2008 to provide a football pitch. In 2011 the Parish Council approved a Deed of Dedication for the recreation field to become a QEII Field. This raises the field to an accredited place of recreation that is enshrined in law. A roundel states it is a Field in Trust, as part of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee of 2012.
