A very important part of your septic system.  If it fails the repair could be expensive.

Well... a "Leech Field" would be a large grassy are filled with worm-like-water-based-external parasites.

A "Leach Field" would be a drainage area largely associated with a septic system, and hopefully not filled with leeches.

and may I have a collective "ewwwww"?

When we were young, we went to a cabin in the Northern woods of Wisconsin.  Whenever we went into the lake (i.e., leech field), my brother would come out with tons of "leeches" on his feet....we then spent the rest of the afternoon watching our mother try to remove them.....jesting aside, I see you already have the true answer!

A method used to treat/dispose of sewage in rural areas not accessible to a municipal sewer system.  Sewage is permitted to be filtered and eventually discharged into a section of the lot called a leech field.
