In a Survey of Birmingham made in 1553 it was stated that the keeper of the park had all the profits and commodities of the land, namely deer, rabbits; the windfalls of wood as well as lopped wood; all the herbage and agistment (the taking in of other men's swine to feed); and also all the pannage (the food of swine like beechnuts and acorns).
For the first time, many of the Boards refused agistment rights or simply closed the routes to travelling stock unless they could name an outside destination.
The farm was initially set up to offer pre-training and agistment (a livery or boarding service), and has been developed into a sizeable breeding operation by owners Brett Jenkins and family.
