The fame, or a fimilar diftribution of 

 lands remain in every uninclofed townlhip to 

 this day. Each townlhip is one common 

 FARM ; laid ont into three arable divifions 

 ior c(^rn •, a flat of meadow land for hay j — 

 and one or m.ore pujiiires for {lock. 



It appears evident from obfervation in dif- 

 ferent Dirn'i<fl:s of the kingdom, that in laying 

 out a townfhip which contains a diverfity of 

 foil, the dried and beft lands have been laid 

 out as arable fields ; the wetted, if fufficient- 

 ly found, as mowing ground; and the re- 

 maii'dcr as paflure land, and as a fourcc of 

 fiicl. In feme townfliips, part of the paflurc 

 ground has been fet apart as a flinted pafturc 

 for fome particular fpecies of cattle ; and, 

 in others, part of the common-field land has 

 been laid to grafs for the purpofc of teddcr- 

 ing uorfes upon in the corn years, and feed- 

 ing fliccp upon in th: fallow year.
