A smithy is shown on the 1841 tithe map but is gone by the 1st edition 6" OS map of 1885.

Four or five buildings are shown at the southern end of the western field, including a smithy adjacent to the western boundary and a number of buildings surrounding a linear court with a private road running to these buildings from the village (now the green lane). The rectangular fields that make up the majority of the site are called Long Field and Vicarage Park and were utilised as pasture.
