Biographical history
A conveyance is a type of deed, used to transfer land from one party to another, usually for money (when you sell your house a conveyance is involved). Early forms of conveyance included feoffments, surrenders and admissions at manor courts (if the property was copyhold), final concords, common recoveries, bargains and sales and leases and releases.
Copyhold land was land that belonged to a Manor and was, notionally, property of the Lord of the Manor. Gradually copyhold land was enfranchised until the Law of Property Act 1922 abolished copyhold status, converting all such land into freehold. Enfranchisement was the process by which a copyhold title was changed to a freehold.
