 Flemington is the township to the west, and apparently had its 

 East field. Since the other localities have not perpetuated them- 

 selves on the ordnance map, they were probably fields rather 

 than hamlets. The total area at St. Florence throughout which 

 the parcels of the tenants were intermixed appears therefore to 

 have been about seventy-five acres. 



A few miles to the north lay the lordship of Narberth, of which 

 we have a survey made in 7 James I.^ The lordship comprised, 

 besides Narberth, the townships of Templeton and Robeston. At 

 Temple ton there was no open common arable, all holdings con- 

 sisting of '' arable land enclosed " and " mountain ground." The 

 Narberth holdings were less uniform. For the most part they 

 were, so far as described, either closes or " arable and pasture at 

 Middle hill." Three tenants at least had " arable not enclosed," 

 in amounts of from six to fourteen acres, but no further descrip- 

 tion of these unenclosed acres is vouchsafed. 



Robeston was the township which, of the three, seemed most 

 inclined to intermix the parcels of the tenants. Of this we are 

 assured by no definite statement, but the assignment of small par- 

 cels to the same field division can scarcely be interpreted in any 

 other way. Particularly noteworthy is the case of four tenants, 

 each of whom had exactly the same series of small parcels in nine 

 localities. Four times is repeated the following list of fractional 

 acres: f in hill park close, f in woodways close, f (or f ) in Hookes- 

 meade, f in Blind will, f at Utter hoke, | above the haies, \ at 

 Narbert waie, \ at Langstone, \ at Lynacre. What had taken 

 place was a division, among the four tenants, of plots of land
