Plot 1154 on the Littleham Tithe Map of 1844 is recorded as 'Pit Linhay' within the Tithe Apportionment. The field name may indicate the location of linhay within the plot, and may relate to a building depicted within the south-east corner of the plot on the Tithe Map. The field name also suggests the presence of a pit within the vicinity, although no features are depicted within this plot on the Tithe Map.
