Full Description
{1} The common fields of Greatworth were enclosed by agreement in 1634 but nothing is known of their arrangement. Ridge and furrow existes on the ground or can be traced on air photos over much of the land attributable to Greatworth though it suvives best on the lower clay areas in the south west of the parish. It is arranged in end-on and interlocking furlongs, many of reversed-S form.
