The three properties with which I am going to deal belong to the marginal land group and were taken over about 1906-10, the main incentive being free rent for 4 years and the low unimproved value, namely 12s. 6d. to 25s. per acre. The tenure was L.I.P. or O.R.P. and the rent about 4 per cent. of the unimproved value.
