Help deciphering Full occupation from 1871 Census

Sheepwalk = a tract of land for grazing sheep

I've never heard of a sheepwalk before, but in the next village where I grew up, there used to be a "ropewalk", thus I presumed "sheepwalk was a narrow tract of land.

I found this:-

(plural sheepwalks) Land given to pasturing of sheep, smaller than a sheep-run.

Given this "sheep walk" is 700 acres a sheep-run must be massive areas!

What i've found interesting is on the census prior his occupation is listed as being a miner, seems like quite a career change so would be intrested to find out what happed there. The next 3-4 generations all had at least one shepard/sheep farmer  amoung them so does seem to have become a family business.
