Licence
Licence [fr. licentia, Lat.], a permission given by one man to another to do some act which without such permission it would be unlawful for him to do. It is a personal right, and is not transferable, but dies with the man to whom it is given.

As to the nature and effect of the licence granted to the purchaser of a ticket for a theatre or other similar entertainment, see Hurst v. Picture Theatres, (1915) 1 KB 1, and the authorities there referred to, and Allen & Sons v. King, (1916) 2 AC 54.

Lease or licence
Lease or licence, it is the creation of an interest in immovable property or a right to possess it that distinguishes a lease from a licence. A licence does not create an interest in the property to which it relates while a lease does. There is in other words transfer of a right to enjoy the property in case of a lease. As to whether a particular transaction creates a lease or a licence is always a question of intention of the parties which is to be inferred from the circumstances of each case. For the purpose of deciding whether a particular grant amounts to a lease or a licence, it is essential, therefore, to look to the substance and essence of the agreement and not to its form, Board of Revenue v.
