The Hundreds is a centuries old system of allocating rough grazing land to the local peasant farmers. This area was once part of the ancient Forest of Troutbeck and contained an upper, middle and lower Hundred. Hundred. Each Hundred was divided into one hundred cattels, and every cattel was considered large enough to graze five animals.
