BOUND, or BOUNDARY (from O. Fr. bonde, Med. Lat. bodena or butina, a frontier line)

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 324 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BOS-BRI
BOUND, or BOUNDARY (from O. Fr. bonde, Med. Lat. bodena or butina, a frontier line) , that which serves to indicate the limit or extent of
land
 . It is usually defined by a certain mark, such as a post, ditch, hedge, dyke,
wall
  of stones, &c., though on the other hand it may have to be ascertained by reference to a plan or by measurement. In law, the exact boundary of
land
  is always a matter of evidence; where no evidence is available, the
court
  acts on presumption. For example, the boundary of land on opposite sides of a road, whether public or private, is presumed to be the middle line of the road. Where two
fields
  are separated by a hedge and ditch the boundary line will run between the hedge and the ditch. Boundaries of parishes, at common law, depended upon ancient and immemorial custom, and in many parishes
great
  care was taken to perpetuate the boundaries of the parish by perambulations from time to time. The confusion of local boundaries in England was the subject of several commissions and committees in the 19th
century
 , and much information will be found in their reports (1868, 1870, 1873, 1888). The Local Government Act 1888, ss. 50-63, contains provisions for the alteration of local areas.
