Definition: Land held in one's own right, especially land attached to a manor and reserved for the court's own use.

Example: The king owned a manor that was recorded in the Domesday Book. This manor was called ancient demesne.

Explanation: Ancient demesne refers to a manor that was held by the Crown at the time of William the Conqueror and was recorded in the Domesday Book. It was reserved for the court's own use and was considered a part of the king's domain or realm.

Example: A person who owns a piece of land has complete ownership of it. This is called demesne as of fee.

Explanation: Demesne as of fee refers to complete ownership of something. It is different from ancient demesne, which is land held by the Crown. When a person owns a piece of land, they have complete ownership of it and can do whatever they want with it.
