Common Right Assertion a Thesis Submitted to Middlesex University In
Enclosure Resistance in Middlesex, 1656 - 1889: A Study of Common Right Assertion A thesis submitted to Middlesex University in partial fulfilment of the requirementsfor the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Paul Carter School of Humanities and Cultural Studies August 1998 BEST COPY AVAILABLE Variable print quality I ABSTRACT This study provides a detailed examination of resistance to enclosure in Middlesex from the closing stagesof the English Republic to the late Victorian period. The evidence presentedin the following chapters establishesthat resistancewas widely spread both over time, (before, during and after any individual enclosure) and geographical location within the county. The study itself is divided into four general sections. The first section is divided into two chapters each having a separatefunction in setting the sceneprior to examining any of the Middlesex evidence. The first chaptersets out both the terminologyused by contemporariesand later by historiansto describe farming practice in general and the enclosure process in particular. Contemporaries, whether agriculturists or commentators on rural life, and historians have a myriad of terms and conventions to explain the way in which life was organised in the countryside of the past. This introduction to the terminology is necessary. Although I am primarily concerned with labour, and the transition from a rural community with access to the material benefits of common rights to one of exclusive wage dependence, it is still required that we are able to understand the description of agricultural practices as this transition progresses. The second chapter is an examination of previous historians' analysis of enclosure, and their accounts of the responsesof commoners to enclosure and the threat of enclosure. -
The Park Keeper
The Park Keeper 1 ‘Most of us remember the park keeper of the past. More often than not a man, uniformed, close to retirement age, and – in the mind’s eye at least – carrying a pointed stick for collecting litter. It is almost impossible to find such an individual ...over the last twenty years or so, these individuals have disappeared from our parks and in many circumstances their role has not been replaced.’ [Nick Burton1] CONTENTS training as key factors in any parks rebirth.
