726. An Enclosure That Has Been Planted

Shabbos 16:6

If produce has been planted in the greater part of an area that is larger than needed to plant two seah of grain and that was enclosed to serve as a dwelling, it is considered a garden and one may not carry throughout it, just within four cubits. If only the minority part of it was planted, then if the planted area is the size needed to plant two seah, one may carry throughout the enclosure. If the planted area is larger than this, one may not carry throughout the enclosure. If trees are planted in the major portion of such an enclosure, it is considered a courtyard and one may carry throughout it. If such an enclosure becomes filled with water, then if the water is suitable for people, it is like trees and one may carry throughout the enclosure. If the water is not suitable for people, one may only carry within four cubits.

Shabbos 16:7

Regarding an area large enough to plant three seah (10.5 gallons) of seed that was originally enclosed for purposes other than to serve as a dwelling, if a roof covers an area large enough to plant one seah, one may carry throughout the enclosure. The edge of the roof is treated as if it descends and separates the covered portion. If a wall of such an enclosure was torn down, opening the enclosure to the courtyard next door, and a section of courtyard wall opposite this gap was also torn down, then people may continue to carry in the courtyard and it remains prohibited to carry in the enclosure (i.e., nothing has changed). The courtyard does not permit carrying in the enclosure.
