undertenant

Edmund Lane, a corn miller of Steam Mills at Cinderford, now appeared as an undertenant.

These undertenant retained their ties to the Ferrers after the families had moved to England following the Norman Conquest.

Its undertenant was named William, later William de Rolleston, a vassal to Henry de Ferrers, who displaced a Saxon thegn named Ulfkell.

The landlord may also express concern that on a forfeiture of the lease the undertenant may try to seek relief from forfeiture under s 146(4) of the Law of Property Act 1925 at a rent less than the lease rent.

The landlord should either obtain from the insurers a waiver of subrogation rights as regards the tenant, any undertenant and their mortgagees, or if that is not possible or practicable then the landlord should endeavour to note their interests on the policy.
