The enclosure of common land into smaller privately owned units of
land by parliamentary intervention transformed the traditional
open-field system of farming which gave even the poorest a share in
the common land. Despite its long-term benefits, its methods and
immediate consequences were controversial, dispossessing the rural
poor from their land. This text analyzes the extent and impact of
parliamentary enclosure regionally, examining the processes by
which land was reorganized, cultivation extended into former waste
lands and old practices transformed. It stresses the degree of
local variation and the mixture of motives and effects which make
the subject complex. The book also weighs up the evidence for the
effect of enclosure on the poor, looking afresh at old conclusions
and providing new insights.
