I think the field could be nice with work.
Safety is priority.
So get the it sorted asap, you dont want them injuring themselves or exscaping.
Lock and chain gates and hinges.
Check for ragworth etc and rubbish.
Althought they arnt in best condition you dont want them gorging so bets to fence and area and gradulally move the fence so they get a bit or fresh grass at a time.
Give them a basic chaff with a broad spectrum suppliment.
You do sound very nieve and lacking in knowldge.
Get a vet to give them a health check.
Are they up to date with injection, worming, teeth, farrier?
Get a knowlegable person, to give you some horsecare lessons, being on you own may be nice but there is no one there for help and advice.
You fealy should find out the dimentions of the field to help you manage it.
There are website you can use to find out how many acres it is.
You may need to keep resting parts of it, as it could get wet in winter etc
