‘4. Coombe Keynes. Mills (1977, 120) refers to a field in the parish before 1750 with the name ‘Cleag Sceard’ or ‘Clay Sherd’. At the same period there are three other references to a field with the ‘crok’ name element. These are ‘Crokewell Hey’ 1435, ‘Croukulhey’ 1446 and ‘Crokelhay’ 1493. Mills interprets these as meaning enclosures with a well or stream where pots have been found.’
