Quite envious of intriguing names for fields.
not very imaginative here, Top Ten Acre', End Field, Well Field, Crofts 1 and 2, 'Front field'. Pot Sink Field (Some day we'll get that pot sink connected to the spring

). 'That field where you fenced it too narrow to plant a hedge' (I'd asked for 2 metres from wall :-( ).
I'll have to have a think about names, need something that sounds historic somehow.

When the farm was sold we kept the field known as long pasture. About 100m wide and ⅓ mile long. This is now 7 paddocks of varying sizes which were named as we went along. So we have Top Paddock, Top Hay, Middle Field, Bottom Hay, Bottom Top, Bottom Middle and The Ram Paddock.

Hanging field _ because history says a man hanged himself from a tree , Tongue _ very long and narrow , Snoot _ ? , Swaite fell _ ? Hydro _ because it looks down to what used to be a victorian hydro , Mirrans Barn _ because a woman called Mirran owned the barn and fields around it
