Full Description
{1} The common fields of the parish were enclosed by an Act of Parliament of 1767, though no Enclosure Map survives. Very little ridge and furrow of these fields exists on the ground as most of the parish is under permanaent arable but the little that can be traced appears to be arranged in rectangular furlongs of reversed-S or C form arranged so that the ridges run across the contours. Though little ridge and furrow remains a numbe of former headlands between furlongs can be traced as low ridges up to 20m across and 0.25m high (eg SP756817.)
