Histórico
The Court of Wards and Liveries was established in 1540-42. Its function was to administer the monarch's feudal dues. When a tenant of the monarch died, the land reverted to the crown until the heir of the tenant paid a fee, known as a 'relief', after which they could take possession. If the heir was underage they became a ward of the crown.
