Glebe at Rhyl.
Amendment of conditions of grant of Crown land to vicar of Rhyl under 10 Geo. 4. c. 50. s. 45.
|
6. Whereas section forty-five of the Crown Lands Act, 1829, authorised, among other things, the grant of any ground proper for the site of a church or chapel or for the residence of a spiritual person who may serve such church or chapel, or for the site of any parochial or district school, to an amount not exceeding five acres, and such grant was to be made by a warrant in manner provided by the said Act:
|
| |
And whereas in pursuance of the said section by a warrant dated the twenty-ninth day of December one thousand eight hundred and thirty-six two pieces of land situate in the township of Rhyl in the parish of Rhuddlan in the county of Flint and containing five acres or thereabouts, and delineated on a plan signed by one of the Commissioners of Woods and deposited in the Office of Land Revenues, Records, and Enrolments, and therein coloured the one red and yellow, and the other green, were granted for the purpose of erecting a church or chapel of ease, and a residence for the spiritual person to serve such church, subject to the condition that if the same ceased to be used for the purpose aforesaid the land should revert to the Crown:
|
| |
And whereas the church was built on the land coloured red in the said plan, and a residence for the said spiritual person was erected close by the church but not on the piece of land containing four acres and one rood and coloured green on the said plan, and that land has since been enjoyed by the said spiritual person (now styled the vicar of Rhyl) as glebe, and doubts have arisen whether the land so granted has not under the terms of the said grant reverted to the Crown:
|
| |
And whereas the vicar of Rhyl has with the consent of the bishop and patron of the benefice agreed with the managers of the Rhyl National School to grant without consideration the portion of the land coloured yellow on the said plan, and doubts have arisen as to the title of the vicar to grant such land:
|
| |
And whereas it is expedient to remove the doubts aforesaid: Be it therefore enacted as follows:
|
| |
On and after the passing of this Act the piece of land coloured green on the said plan shall vest in the vicar of Rhyl as part of the glebe belonging to the benefice of such vicar, and shall be subject to the law relating to glebes accordingly.
|
| |
33 & 34 Vict. c. 75.
|
| |
On and after the passing of this Act the portion of the land coloured yellow on the said plan shall vest in the persons in whom the Rhyl National School is at the passing of this Act vested, subject to the terms of the agreement made with the vicar of Rhyl, in like manner as if the land had been duly conveyed by the owner thereof in fee simple to those persons, as part of the Rhyl National School in pursuance of the Elementary Education Act, 1870, and the Acts amending or referred to in the same.
