View Full Version : Feudal Tenure
Can any one explain what it means in lay man's terms please?
I thought it had been abolished under the 2002 act so why are properties that have been built later that still showing feudal tenure?
Any information would be much appreciated.

There will be no charge for this service.
This I believe is what happened in Scotland :-
The feudal system of land tenure was brought to an end on 28 November 2004 when The Abolition of Feudal Tenure etc. (Scotland) Act 2000 was brought into force. On that date, the Act replaced the feudal system with a system of outright ownership of land. All superiority interests in land were extinguished. The right of feudal superiors to enforce conditions ended, subject to certain saving provisions of a restricted nature. Feu duty was also abolished although compensation may be payable.

Thanks Kodiak, I have read through several sites and am still confused, think I will have to find a legal eagle to explain what is involved.

when we bought our house we had to check the feu's as well, allowed the solicitors to gain some extra £'s but that was in 1996 so it may have changed since then.
