Home Lane Field was an arable field of about two acres, situated on the southern side of Old Lane, at its western end. In the Tithe Award it was measured at 2 acres and 8 perches.

Home Lane Field was one of six plots of land comprising Stafford Lake Farm. In the first half of the 18th century Stafford Lake Farm was held by John Bicknell. In 1745, John Bicknell sold the Farm, and the land containing approximately seven acres (plots 271-274 & 277 on the Tithe Map), for the sums of £50 and £80 respectively, to John Whittall, a yeoman of Bisley.

In 1766, John Whittall died and his son, also John, inherited. In 1767, John Whittall junior sold the farm and the land to William Thick of Frimley, wheelwright.

William Thick died in 1772 and the property passed to his son, also William (who was only twelve at the time - his mother, Rachel, was appointed guardian).

In 1783, William junior, now a wheelright of Woking, died; his son, also William, was his heir.

In 1829, Sarah Roake, wife of John Roake, formerly Sarah Thick died. In her will she left Stafford Lake Farm to her husband. Sarah is thought to be the daughter of William the wheelwright.

John Roake died in 1847 and the farm passed to his son, David. In 1853, David sold the farm, along with other property, to George Drury, an auctioneer of Guildford.

In October 1890 George Drury, sold the properties to Lieutenant Colonel Alfred Paget Humphrey. In 1894, Alfred sold the properties to George Frederick of Wales Duke of York, upon trust for Principal Secretary of State for War.
