aka OAK FIELD

Polled Oak Field was an arable field of about six acres, situated in the western end of the parish at the confluence of Bisley Green and Polled Oak Slade. In the Tithe Award it was measured at 6 acres and 2 perches.

Polled Oak Field was one of four fields, purchased by John Kidder from John Smith some time before 1733. John Kidder sold Polled Oak Field to Solomon Dayrolles in 1750.

Solomon Dayrolles died in 1786, having agreed to sell Polled Oak Field to Henry Halsey. His son, Thomas Philip Dayrolle, was admitted as tenant and then immediately surrendered the land to the use of Henry Halsey.

Henry Halsey died in 1809. In his will he left his lands in Bisley, including Polled Oak Field, in trust to the use of his son, Henry William Richard Westgarth Halsey, for his life and then to the son or sons of his said son. In 1849, a quantity of timber was cut on the trust lands without licence from the lord of the manor and so the lands became forfeited to the lord. In 1850, the lands were granted back to H.W.R.W Halsey.

In 1881, Henry William Richard Westgarth Halsey surrendered the trust lands, including Polled Oak Field, to Frederick Mellersh and Edward Joseph Halsey, who were admitted as tenants in 1886.

In 1889, land in Chobham, Pirbright and Bisley was sold, by various parties in a complicated deal, to The Right Honorable Francis Charteris Earl of Wemyss and March. The Earl of Wemyss and March thus became the owner of Polled Oak Field.
