I did discover that there were Vaccary farms on Hameldon hill, and in the area of spire farm. Although interesting it did distract me from my quest.

The vaccaries were originally farmed by the monks of the Kirkstall Abbey manorial grange commonly known as Black Abbey. Retlaw has posted about them quite a bit, just put vaccaries in the search box at the top of the page if you want to find the threads.
