Full Description
{1} The date of enclosure of the common fields is unknown, but the parish was enclosed by 1741 and had probably been so since the C15th or C16th. Most of the parish is covered with ridge and furrow which remains in very good condition over almost all the permanent grassland of Fawsley Park. It is arranged mainly in interlocked furlongs, with ridges usually at right-angles to the contours.
