patch of waste ground


Explanation:
Pošto je ovde reč o konkretnom "komadu" zemljišta, ja bih to preveo ovako.

"In those days the area had been just a patch of waste ground and it looked impossible to develop into a cricket ground. ..."
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=319254414623

"Consequently, they go to the town's mayor and demand that a children's playground be built on an overgrown patch of waste ground."
www.oneworld.cz/2011/films-a-z/19362-the-game-must-go-on

"On a patch of waste ground, beside a medieval tower, there stands a little roofless temple..." Rebecca West, "Black Lamb and Grey Falcon".
