The Enclosure Acts were a series of laws passed in England from the late 18th century to the early 19th century, with significant legislation occurring between 1760 and 1840. These acts allowed for the privatization of common lands, transforming the open fields into enclosed farms. The process aimed to increase agricultural efficiency but also displaced many small farmers and altered rural communities. The overall impact contributed to significant social and economic changes during the Industrial Revolution.
