Gavelkind

Monument at Swanscombe recording the legend of how Kent managed to extract concessions from William the Conqueror.

Gavelkind (/ˈɡævəlknd/) was a system of land tenure associated chiefly with the county of Kent, but also found in Ireland and Wales and some other parts of England. Its inheritance pattern is a system of partible inheritance, which bears resemblance to Salic patrimony: as such, it might testify in favour of a wider, probably ancient Germanic tradition. Under this law, land was divided equally among sons or other heirs.
