On the 1840 Tithe schedule for Wimbish in Essex, for our cottage and garden under the heading, Alias it has cf, Tyehach 1381,ct[/b] could someone please tell me what this means.
On the copyhold for our cottage and garden, it mentions that the annual rent was 8pence/year by ancient rights.
I was also wondering if the year 1381 when the ancient's rights were granted?

Claire thanks for the download I had been told about that many years ago but I had no record of it.
The transcribed Tithe schedule I obtained from our local library had Cottage and Garden.
I am trying to search the history of our cottage that's why I mentioned that the annual rent was 8pence/year by ancient rights.

not sure if that will work? But search for it and it comes up and you can download the book

The Place Names of Essex, Reaney, P.H., 1969, is available to view on The Internet Archive. It has to be 'borrowed' but borrowing is free if you register, which is also free.
Here is the page that refers to Tye Green. The abbreviation Ct. is "Court Rolls (unpublished)" which at the time of publication were/was? available in various libraries that are listed in the book.
(6” simply refers to OS maps.)

Thanks, Alan and Claire
I have copies of many of the Court Rolls for Wimbish Manor I will have to go back the records Office to search for the earlier records.
I have attached one example some I have mentioned the fees being transferred. I have always thought that the land belonged to the Manor and the building to the occupant but I am not certain now.
The 1758 map of Wimbish shows a plot of land with a building on it.
