(W)here a person seised of land which is subject to an easement, "profit à prendre", or similar right, also becomes seised of the land to which the easement or other right is annexed. The term is usually applied to cases where the seisin is that of a tenant in fee simple, and is equally high or "perdurable" in both pieces of land, so that the easement or other right is extinguished by the unity of seisin...(Jowitt's, 2nd ed., 1977, p. 1832) 1, record 1, English, - unity%20of%20seisin
