Looking southwards just after sunrise towards the houses on Bolney Road, the A272. According to the tithe map of 1840 this was a field called Mercers Mead which by 1912 was being used as a firing range and was given in trust to the village along with another field to the north called Thistle Field to form the current recreation ground which is home to the village's football, cricket and stoolball teams amongst others.
