Appurtenances

Appurtenances signify things both corporeal and incorporeal, appertaining to another thing as principal; as hamlets to a Chief manor; and common of pasture, piscary, etc. Also liberties and services of tenants. If a man grants common of estovers to be burnt in his manor, these are appurtenant to the manor, for things appurtenant to the manor may be granted at this day.  Out houses, yards, orchards and gardens are appurtenant to a messuage; but lands cannot properly be said to be appurtenant to a messuage.   And one messuage cannot be appurtenant to another.  Lands will not pass by the word appurtenance, but only such things which do properly belongs to the house.
