HC Deb 09 June 1953 vol 516 c9W
Major Hicks Beach

asked the Minister of Agriculture the acreage of the unenclosed common land in Gloucestershire.

Sir T. Dugdale

There is no reliable figure for the acreage of unenclosed common land in Gloucestershire. There has been no survey of common land since 1873 and the figures then compiled were believed to be inaccurate.
