Fact that blew my mind when I learned it after 30 years of working with adjacent issues: the Swedish land enclosure reforms of the 1700s and 1800s did not touch a hamlet's outer border, as a rule. The land ownership, field delimitation and location of farm buildings inside the border was often wildly rearranged. But the outer border today is usually identical to the earliest documented one of the 1600s.
