Commons, Forests and Footpaths (Classic Reprint)

Description: This book delves into the history of legal battles from 1865 to the present day, fought by the Commons and Footpaths Preservation Society to protect the lands of England and Wales. It begins with the story of how a rebellion against the inclosure of common lands during the 16th century led to the creation of these preservation acts to protect what was seen as an essential part of public life. Comprehensive Acts were later written which have been repeatedly updated to give greater security against the defacement of common lands and the harassment of those utilizing them. This book is highly recommended for those who want to learn more about the history of land use in England and Wales, the origins of the movements which continue to strive to protect ancient public rights and ensure the continuity of the preservation of nature.
