Hiya, just wanted to share this wonderful article entitled

Quote:
The Fight Against the Theft of Sydenham Common and One Tree Hill.

Many open green spaces that we take for granted today still exist because in the past they were preserved from enclosure and development by both legal and illegal
resistance. The battles to save two such spaces in South London, Sydenham Common & One Tree Hill, saw legal shenanigans, rioting, intrigue and violent death...


all about the historic fights against enclosures and for common land in days gone by. I think you;ll like it!
