Enclosure,"This Broad Type covers field systems, also referred to as enclosed land. It reflects the ways that farming communities have adapted changing cultural norms to local topography and have been inclined to be more or less conservative (or innovative) according to the opportunities or constraints of local economies. 
The study of enclosed land is one of the more contested and controversial areas of landscape history and archaeology, reflecting the different emphases scholars have placed on the wide range of economic, social, agricultural, topographical and cultural factors involved in their creation, maintenance and change. Historic characterisation attempts to span all such interests, but this thesaurus has also to corral them into a reasonable scheme that works at the Greater London level.
The Enclosure Broad Type is divided into three Intermediate Types which relate to the broad period of origin of the field system in question: Ancient Enclosure, Pre Modern Enclosure and Modern Enclosure. Beneath these are the more specific terms Narrow Types which identify the particular field system observed. It will be noticed that, aside from the Intermediate Types, there are few terms that relate directly to periods of origin or to the fields' shape or form. This is as these other qualities are captured as separate attributes within the GIS and/or database that stores the historic characterisation information.",Pre Modern Enclosure,Patterns of fields which typically originate between the medieval period and the 20th century. Many are 18th and 19th century in origin and evolved in response to developments in land management associated with the application of 'scientific methods' to farming practices and the availability of new tools and equipment due to innovations in contemporary industrial manufacture.,Reclaimed Land,"Coastal or other low-lying ground taken in for agriculture, usually by dyking and draining. Some medieval (usually smaller more irregular patterns), but mainly post-medieval and modern (larger, rectilinear, and more regular)."
Fisheries And Aquaculture,"A largely marine, coastal and estuarine Broad Type relating to the harvesting of fish and shellfish (largely molluscs and crustaceans) either from the wild (fishing) or under controlled conditions and from farms (aquaculture). They affect the surface, water column, floor and sub-floor parts of the sea, estuaries, lakes and rivers. Over time, developing methods of netting, trapping and catching have involved differing intensities and practices with consequently varied effects on landscape character. Equally varied have been these practices’ changing customs, controls, associations, by-products, wrecks and debris.
Related coastal activities and infrastructure are normally located at or near the interface between water and land and include the gathering of bait and the processing and marketing of the catch. In the marine zone however, this Broad Type’s activities span all layers, as do its material impacts, including on present expressions of marine biodiversity.",Aquaculture,"The commercial cultivation of fish and shellfish populations under controlled conditions, often
enclosed from wild stocks. It includes the raising of saltwater and/or freshwater species and may occur both inland or in fully marine situations.",Fish Farming,"Areas characterised by the commercial cultivation of fish populations under controlled conditions. These areas may be sited in inland or be coastally located artificial ponds, or in rivers, estuaries and the open sea and enclosed in tanks, cages or nets."

They are 1960s and later in date and now account for the majority of larger-scale suburban housing development."

The rear yard could be shared or divided. The type is mainly recognisable from the presence of separate front doors which are adjacent to each other with one allowing access to the ground floor flat and the other to the upper floor flat. The form is also known as 'cottage flat'.

Valley Floor And Wetland Use,"This Broad Type is based partly on land use and partly on topography. It is dominated by forms of meadow, whether engineered to be especially productive (water meadows) or retained as semi-natural grasslands within hay meadows. More specialised uses, often now reduced, include osier beds and watercress beds.",Valley Floor Grazing,Valley-floor land used for grazing. The level of active management of the grazing resource varies.,Valley Bottom Meadow,"Permanent grassland on poorly drained valley floors, exploited for the lush grass it supports. Often enclosed, sometimes held in common and used for hay-making and best summer pasture."
