24. The valuation may be compared with the distribution of the charges for various rated taxes between 1636 and 1673. The charges for these were upon occupiers rather than owners as such. A comparison shows that the ownership of land was considerably more concentrated than was the occupation of land and that there was apparently a large number of small tenanted holdings.
