What effect did the enclosure acts have on people’s working lives?

changes brought about by the acts prevented large farmers from taking lands from smaller farmers.
small farmers could no longer work on common lands and had to move to cities for work.
peasants started working on enclosed lands and soon became wealthy because of higher wages.
landowners forced peasants to build roads and bridges as part of the new enclosure laws.

Option 2: Small farmers could no longer work on common lands and had to move to cities for work.

The Enclosure Acts, as a series of Acts between the 17th and 18th centuries, authorized the enclosure of open fields and common land in England and Wales, creating legal property rights to land that was held in common before.

As a result, thousands of smalls farmers couldn't work in the lands anymore, which force them to move to cities for work. Such people mobilization ended up contributing to the industrial revolution later on.

a phrase from a poem by ralph waldo emerson about the battle of lexington and concord. emerson's words read, “here once the embattled farmers stood / and fired the shot heard round the world.”
