Excerpt from The Midland Revolt and the Inquisitions of Depopulation of 1607
A closer examination will Show that inclosures played an appreciable part, as one of the agrarian grievances, only in portions of the revolts of 1536 and I 548 - 9, and even in these it was not the characteristic inclosure of the period, that Of the Open fields, which is most prominent, but the much older and long-continued inclosure of commons, while the rebellions of 1554 and 1569 Show scarcely a trace of agrarian motive.' It was not until 1607 that resentment expressed itself unalloyed with other motives against the depopulating inclosure Of the common fields, in a hitherto inadequately chronicled revolt which swept for a brief period through some of the midland counties.
