In any provisional order in relation to a common, the Inclosure Commissioners shall, in considering the expediency of the application, take into consideration the question whether such application will be for the benefit of the neighbourhood, and shall, with a view to such benefit, insert in any such order such of the following terms and conditions (in this Act referred to as statutory provisions for the benefit of the neighbourhood) as are applicable to the case; that is to say,

(1)That free access is to be secured to any particular points of view; and

(2)That particular trees or objects of historical interest are to be preserved; and

(3)That there is to be reserved, where a recreation ground is not set out, a privilege of playing games or of enjoying other species of recreation at such times and in such manner and on such parts of the common as may be thought suitable, care being taken to cause the least possible injury to the persons interested in the common; and

(4)That carriage roads, bridle paths, and footpaths over such common are to be set out in such directions as may appear most commodious; and

(5)That any other specified thing is to be done which may be thought equitable and expedient, regard being had to the benefit of the neighbourhood.
