Park

Park [fr. parcus, Lat., fr. parco, to spare], a place of privilege for wild beasts of venery, and other wild beasts of the forest and chase; who are to have a firm place and protection there, so that no man may hurt or chase them without licence of the owner. A park differs from a forest, in that, as Compton observes, a subject may hold a park by prescription or royal grant. It differs from a chase because a park must be enclosed; if it lie open, it is a good cause of seizing it into the sovereign's hands, as a free chase may be if it lie enclosed. To a park three things are required-1st, a grant thereof; 2nd, enclosure by pale, wall, or hedge; 3rd, beasts of a park, such as buck, does, etc.; see Sir Charles Howard's case, 1626 Cro Car 59; Pease v. Courtney, (1904) 2 Ch 509. The word 'park,' as used in the (English) Settled Land Acts, is not confined to an ancient legal park but includes an ordinary private park (Pease v. Courtney).Royal Parks.-As to the management of the royal parks s...

Chase

Chase [ fr. Chasse, Fr.], a privileged place for the preservation of deer and beasts of the forest, of a middle nature between a forest and a park. It is commonly less than a forest and not endowed with so many liberties, as officers, laws, courts; and yet it is of larger compass than a park, having more officers an game than a park. Every forest is a chase, but every chase is not a forest. It differs from a park in that it is not enclosed, yet it must have certain metes and bounds, but it may be in other men's ground as well as in one's own, Manw. 49....
