- The names of the fields on our farm are the Long Field, the Rushy Field, the Park, the Big Field. There are no hollows, heights, steams, rocks nor bushes on the farm. The Long Field gets its name because it is a long field. The Rushy Field is so called because it is full of rushes. The Big Field gets its name because of its size. The Park is so called because the cows graze in it.
