Abstract:
A problem facing the Earl of Ashburnham in the mid-nineteenth century was the relatively rapid rate of turnover by his tenant farmers on his High Wealden estate in Sussex. An examination is made of a number of interlinked general factors such as the relatively poor physical environment, low farming standards, and conditions of tenure, all of which effectively hindered the stability of tenants. The quality of management varied greatly between farms and the importance of obtaining an experienced tenant with capital was crucial, since his improvements could then be furthered by his successors to produce a cumulative beneficial effect.
