     Sorry, Pat, the word I meant to use was 'impinges', not 'infringes'!
Senior moment!!

     re: woodlanders historical context
     
     Thank you once again, Rosemarie. It certainly is a most complicated
area 
     and very difficult to compare with the South African situation, even 
     though the Knysna forest came under control of British authorities in 
     the early nineteenth century. (it was then exploited for the British 
     Royal Navy). However the system of "landed gentry" certainly didn't 
     apply. Thank you for pointing out that "landed gentry" were not of the 
     peerage - I never realized that. The intricacies of the British class 
     system are very difficult to follow! I have found Simon Schama's 
     "Landscape and Memory" an invaluable source of information about the 
     Greenwood in England and would be interested at some later date to 
     compare "Under the Greenwood Tree" with "The Woodlanders" with regard
to 
     the relationship between identity and place.
     best wishes,
     Pat
