Enclosure was the process of enclosing agricultural lands with boundaries such as fences, walls, hedges or ditches. Enclosure also enabled urban development. Little enclosure took place on heathland, moorland, or in industrial areas.The enclosure was carried out by having land formally categorized as common land (open fields) under some collective control leading to creation of legal property rights.
