I can not get Description of Work post to show up!

So the past couple of days I have been struggling to show the description of the work post to show up. I think there is no errors in my code and I made sure to label everything correctly.

<?php

/*

    Template Name: Work Page

*/



get_header(); ?>

<p>This is the work.php file</p>

<?php

    $args = array(
        'post_type' => 'work'
    );

    $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );


?>

<?php if ( have_posts() ): while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) : $the_query->the_post(); ?>

    <h3><?php the_title(); ?></h3>
    <?php the_field('description'); ?>
    <hr>

<?php endwhile; else: ?>

    <p>There are no post or pages here</p> 

<?php endif; ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Any advice would be great ! Thanks!

If the title is being picked up ok, and therefore the loop is working, I would double check the spelling on the label for your custom field from within the Advanced Custom Field setup.
