DIGGERS 350 EMAIL LIST: Members when transferred from Yahoo: 677 - eGroups (became Yahoo) list founded: Feb 18, 1999
The Diggers appeared in the Spring of 1649 just after King Charles I was executed by Oliver Cromwell at the end of the English Civil war. Sensing that depopulation, enclosure and land ownership had been at the heart of the conflict they embarked on a heroic mission to make the Earth 'A Common Treasury For All'.
350 years later, in April 1999, there were celebrations and a month-long land occupation at 'the Beverley Hills of Britain' St George's Hill private gated estate in Weybridge, SW London. There we honoured Gerrard Winstanley, William Everard and the Diggers' vision and courage in a 350 person strong march from Weybridge to the hill. More at The Diggers' pages And The Land Is Ours history pages too.
