As all land is considered to be the subject of tenure and not of absolute ownership, estates in freehold are spoken of as freehold tenancies.... Estates less than freehold(chattels real) are usually spoken of as leasehold tenancies. These are tenancies for a term of years, periodic tenancies, such as tenancies from year to year, often called yearly tenancies, and quarterly, monthly, or weekly tenancies.(Williams & Rhodes, 5th ed., 1983, p. 1-1).  1, record 2, English, - leasehold%20tenancy

Leasehold ownership exists where one person(the tenant or lessee) is given :(a) exclusive possession of land by another(the landlord or lessor),(b) with the intention that he should hold it as a tenant and not in some other capacity,(c) for a determinate period of time less than that held by the landlord himself.(T) he tenure of the leaseholder is still of vital importance. It is this relationship, represented in the terms of the lease or tenancy agreement, which determines the continuing rights and obligations of the parties. Although it is still common, and correct, for lawyers to talk of freehold tenants, tenants in fee simple, etc., the layman normally understands the word tenant to mean the leasehold tenant; and the expression "landlord and tenant" is invariably used even by lawyers to mean leasehold ownership.(Harwood, 1975, p. 81).  1, record 3, English, - leasehold%20ownership

The word "tenement" is not restricted to lands and other matters which are the subject of tenure. Everything in which a man can have an estate of freehold, and which is connected with land or savours of the realty, is a tenement. Thus the word includes not only land, as the corporeal subject formerly of inheritance, but also all rights which... would have been heritable issuing out of land, or concerning, or annexed to, or exercisable over, land, although they do not lie in tenure....(Halsbury, 4th ed., Vol. 39, p. 264).  1, record 4, English, - tenement

The connecting link between tenure and the second important feudal concept, the doctrine of estates, was seisin. Seisin means possession, but it refers only to possession of an estate of freehold in land of freehold tenure. Thus, for example, a landlord will always have the seisin whereas the tenant under a lease is regarded as merely having possession.(Anger and Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 25).  1, record 6, English, - seisin

Seisin is opposed (1) to possession which, in its technical sense, is only applied to leaseholds and other personal property; and (2) to occupation, which signifies actual possession. (Jowitt’s, 2nd ed., 1977, p. 1627).  1, record 6, English, - seisin

From 1645 until 1926 the two surviving tenures held the field : socage(often called freehold) and copyhold.... This dual system of tenure was an impediment to conveyancing. Copyhold had the great merit that the books of the manor were a register of title, while freehold titles had to be proved in the traditional way by investigating past transactions recorded in the title deeds.(Megarry & Wade, 4th ed., 1975, pp. 33-4)  1, record 11, English, - freehold%20title
