  The cover image was created by the transcriber, and is placed in the public domain. Footnotes have been renumbered and moved to the end of the paragraph (or, where relevant, quotation) to which they refer. A few missing footnote anchors have been added. Maps were originally included as plates, they have been moved to be near the text they illustrate. Some formatting and punctuation of abbreviations have been standardized, and formatting and punctuation in lists has been made consistent. Appendix B, Private acts enclosing common fields, was printed in two columns with, within counties, a “Carried forward” total at the end of each column, and a corresponding “Brought forward” total at the start of the next. These totals are shown here in parenthesis, e.g. {8,309}, to the right at their original position. Variant spelling, inconsistent hyphenation, and inconsistent spelling of place names are retained, however a few palpable printing errors have been corrected. Other changes that have been made are: Page 14, footnote 2 “43 Geo. III. c. 81” has been changed to “13 Geo. III. c. 81”. Page 44, the reference to “the enclosure of Totternhoe” has been changed from page 65 to page 63. The first anchor for footnote 46, on page 98, originally pointed to a footnote which said “See note ¹ on next page.” Page 108, “10,625” has been changed to “10,265” for the net gain of acres under wheat after enclosure. Page 194, in the table of the history of the enclosure of Bedford, dittos have been replaced by the words they represent. Page 296, “Balckbourton” has been changed to “Blackbourton”. Page 313, the pre 1845 total for Yorkshire, North Riding has been changed from 3,171 to 31,171. Page 310, in the totals for “Yorkshire West Riding” “Before 1842” has been changed to “Before 1802”. Page 329, “13 George IV. (1773), c. 81” has been changed to “13 George III. (1773), c. 81”. The following have been kept as printed: Page 201, Footnote 94 Some words have been omitted from this rendition of the quotation. Arthur Young wrote: “They daub it in lumps on all the walls of their houses, barns, stables, etc. to dry”. Page 274, Derbyshire, the acreage in the entry “1773 Church Broughton” of “160A.F., 100A.P.” does not add up to the 360 total given. However the 360 total has been used in the Carried forward sub-total. Page 274, Derbyshire, the out of sequence date 1786 following 1787 has been left as printed. Page 281, in the last entry for Hertfordshire, “Layston and Widdial”, “Date of Act” and “Date of Award” have been left blank, as printed.

Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate. While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate. International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org |
