Grant in Europe
Definition of Grant
(1) The assurance or transfer of the ownership of property, as distinguished from the delivery or transfer of the property itself. A conveyance is a deed of grant.
It was the appropriate word for the conveyance of incorporeal hereditaments incapable of livery of seisin. By the Real Property Act, 1845, all corporeal hereditaments were deemed to lie in grant as well as in livery. By the Conveyancing Act, 1881, the use of the word ” grant ” was rendered unnecessary, and by the Law of Property Act, 1925, s. 51, all land lies in grant and is rendered incapable of being conveyed by livery
(2) The allocation of rights, powers, monies, etc., by the Crown or other authority, to particular persons or for particular purposes
