Last modified: Thu Feb 23 16:37:37 2006
In general, land retained by the estate owner, and not granted out to tenants. The term usually refered to the land of a feudal overlord which he retained for his own personal use. These days the concept is only legally relevant where it refers to DemesneLandOfTheCrown.
