Past it being a field, this location did not exist before the apocalypse.
Post-Apocalypse
After Woodbury had grown a sizable population, Philip Blake decided that his people needed a way to safely see the horrors of the outside world. He decided to have gladiator fights with walkers, however, in order to achieve this he needed to capture said walkers. He made this location in a nearby field so that he can get the necessary walkers. As a added benefit to this, Milton Mamet, his head researcher, would also be able to study the walkers up close.
