The Rebecca Riots were a series of protests by farmers and agricultural workers in Wales against unfair tolls and poor conditions in the 1840s, symbolically led by protesters dressed as a woman named "Rebecca." These riots are remembered for their impact on rural poverty issues and for leading to reforms in the British toll road system.
