- Land_Settlement_Association abstract "The Land Settlement Association was a UK Government scheme set up in 1934, with help from the charities Plunkett Foundation and Carnegie Trust, to re-settle unemployed workers from depressed industrial areas of Britain, particularly from North-East England and Wales. Between 1934 and 1939 1,100 small-holdings were established within 26 settlements.Settlements were set up in rural areas where each successful applicant’s family would be given a small-holding of 5 acres (0.020 km2), livestock and a newly built cottage. Small-holdings were grouped in communities which were expected run agricultural production as cooperative market gardens, with produce sold exclusively through the Association. Applicants were vetted and given agricultural training before being assigned a property.The allocation of settlements to the unemployed was suspended at the outbreak of the Second World War through the necessity of increasing food production; favour was given to those already with horticultural skills. After the war the Association was incorporated within a County Council scheme for statutory provision of smallholdings designed as a first step for those going into agricultural production. The scheme was wound-up in 1983 and the properties privatised. The residual assets of the scheme were constituted as the LSA Charitable Trust, for the benefit of former tenants and to promote horticultural education.".
