The Ashes A survey of the Bishop's palace and grounds in 1648 describes "a close of ground called The Ashes" adjacent to the moated orchard, garden plots and fishponds. In 1927 Charles Briggs gave the land and buildings to the trustees of the Ashes Playingfields Trust to create public playing fields and recreation grounds for the people of Howden.
