In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Cowsfield like this:

COWSFIELD-ESTUARY and COWSFIELD-LOVERS, two tythings in Whiteparish parish, Wilts; 8½ miles ESE of Salisbury. Cowsfield House is the seat of the Lawrences; was partly rebuilt in 1816; and retains-portions of a previous edifice of the time of Elizabeth.
