Appurtenances

Appurtenances
The lesser rights and agreements attaching to land, e.g. pasture rights on particular strips of land, with specified quantities of wood and rights of way. Appurtenances were heritable. They were not necessarily all found within one *manor or vill but could be within neighbouring land. *Bracton, using the Latin word pertinentia, was clear that in land claims appurtenances must be specified: 'the demandant must at the outset describe the thing he claims, . . . that it may be known whether he claims land or a rent or a *tenement with the appurtenances . . . or without.' [< OldFr. apartenance < Lat. pertineo = to concern, pertain to]
