Summary
Lower pitts, no 677, pasture (tithe map). Vis=11/9/1979 (dcra). Grass. A leat runs through this field, which could, according to local information have been designed to irrigate beds of rushes between it and the river for thatching. However, the name of the field suggests that it might have something to do with tin-streaming (dcra).
