Free Commots are areas of land in the United Kingdom that are not owned by any individual or organization. Instead, they are considered common land, where local communities have the right to access and use the land for various purposes, such as grazing livestock or gathering resources. This concept promotes shared use and helps preserve natural spaces. The term "commot" originates from the Welsh word for a division of land. In historical contexts, commots were often used to describe administrative regions. Today, free commots serve as important cultural and ecological resources, fostering community engagement and environmental stewardship.
