Full Description

{1} Archaeological survey visibility very poor with extensive bramble and other ground cover. According to the Estate Gamekeeper, this cover may be cut next year.
Traces of some smaller ditches or drains occasionally observed elsewhere within the wood but visibility precluded confirmation as to their extent.

{4} In 1352 the wood was known as Fayrhull, and in 1538 Fayrehill.

{5} In 1619 was called Fayre Hill Springe.
