Tithe in Europe<\/h1>\n

Definition of Tithe<\/h2>\n

\n

The payment due by the inhabitants of a parish for the support of the parish church, generally payable to the parson of the parish. Originally tithe was payable in kind and consisted of the tenth part of all yearly profits; from the soil (prcedial tithes), from farm stock (mixed tithes), and from personal industry (personal tithes). Rectorial or great tithe is payable to the rector, vicarial or little tithe to the vicar, and lay tithe to a layman. Ecclesiastical tithe is attached to a benefice or ecclesiastical corporation.
When land came into the hands of the monasteries the tithe was appropriated and the cure of souls was deputed to a vicar. The lay holder of a rectory is called an impropriator.
Tithes generally have been commuted for a rentcharge, formerly varying with the price of corn. The Tithe Act, 1925, stabilises the value of tithe, and vests ecclesiastical tithe in Queen Anne’s Bounty on trust for the owners. Provision is made for the ultimate redemption of all tithe by means of a sinking fund<\/p>\n<\/h4>\n
