A small piece of ground.

Patronymica Britannica (1860) by Mark Antony Lower

1. From plot, a portion of flat even ground, also a plantation laid out; from French plat (from Gr. πλarυς, L. latus), whence the French name Du Plat, and the English name Platt. 2. From Pellet, a diminutive of Pell, for Peregrine; or from Bellot, a diminutive of Bell from Isabel. From Bellot we doubtless have the French name Blot.
