Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores Land Tax in England and its impact on property. First introduced as a way to raise funds for aristocratic wars, it was transformed under William and Mary's rule in 1692. The new tax became an annual grant, with specific quotas set for each county and division, and was assessed on the annual value of real estate, personal property, and offices, the latter two were phased out over time. The author outlines how this tax, set at a pound rate not exceeding four shillings, was to be equally levied on all property by yearly assessment, except for a few key exemptions. The book provides insights into the practical and legal aspects of the Land Tax, with a particular focus on the process of redemption, which began in 1798 and allowed landowners to purchase their way out of the tax burden. This comprehensive guide to the Land Tax in England delves into its historical origins, legal framework, and the evolution of its administration over centuries, making it an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of taxation and its impact on the landed gentry.
