Abstract
The purpose of the research, as set out in the Project Brief, was to ‘examine a sample of the sites which have been registered as town or village greens (TVGs) since January 2004 as well as a sample of those that have not been registered’. The common term for both successful and unsuccessful applications is that either outcome has been ‘determined’ by Commons Registration Authority (CRA), therefore the study was an investigation into determined town and village green (dTVG) applications. The project also set out to examine whether the sites were earmarked for development in local development plans or subject to planning applications. The full diversity of sites, both approved and rejected, was analysed
