单词 husbandland
释义

husbandlandn.

Brit. /ˈhʌzb(ə)ndland/, U.S. /ˈhəzb(ə)n(d)ˌlænd/
Forms: see husband n. and land n.1
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: husband n., land n.1
Etymology: < husband n. + land n.1 Compare post-classical Latin terra husbandorum (frequently from 13th cent. in British sources, especially from Scotland and northern England).
Now historical.
In Scotland and the north of England: the holding of a manorial tenant (see husband n. 4(b)); the land occupied and tilled by any of the tenants of a manor, as opposed to the demesne lands. Also (occasionally): a measure of land corresponding to the typical size of such a holding. Though size appears to have varied, a husbandland is most often recorded as consisting of two bovates or oxgangs, roughly equivalent to a yardland or virgate, i.e. between 20 and 30 acres (approx. 8–12 hectares).
ΘΚΠ
society > law > legal right > right of possession or ownership > tenure of property > a legal holding > [noun] > held by type of local tenure
