The Inquisition of 1517. Inclosures and Evictions: Edited from the Lansdowne MS. 1. 153
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 February 2009
Extract
This return is plainly a mere fragment. The page on the Lansdowne MS. is without a heading and is bound up between the Isle of Wight and part of Staffordshire. Some of the small inclosures recorded would be with a view to future building, and altogether these entries, which seem principally to refer to the east side of London, are of little value as enabling us to estimate the magnitude of the agricultural revolution. As towns increase in size, fresh areas of land are naturally taken for accommodation land by butchers & c. Such areas would be returned as conversions to pasture. The following extract is interesting in this connexion.
