HEREDITAMENT (from Lat. heredilare, to inherit, heres, heir)

This article appears in Volume V13, Page 350 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: HEG-HIG
HEREDITAMENT (from Lat. heredilare, to inherit, heres, heir) , in law, every
kind
  of
property
  that can be inherited. Hereditaments are divided into corporeal and incorporeal; corporeal hereditaments are " such as affect the senses, and may be seen and handled by the
body
 ; incorporeal are not the subject of sensation, can neither be seen nor handled, are creatures of the mind, and exist only in contemplation " (
Blackstone
 , Commentaries). An example of a corporeal
hereditament
  is
land
  held in
freehold
 , of incorporeal herditaments,
tithes
 , advowsons,
pensions
 , annuities, rents, franchises, &c. It is still used in the phrase " lands, tenements and hereditaments " to describe
property
  in
land
 , as distinguished from goods and chattels or movable property.
