Read a random definition: implied amnesty

A quick definition of ancient house:

An ancient house is a very old home that has been standing for a long time. In England, it is a house that has been there for so long that it has an easement of support against the adjoining land or building. It is different from other types of houses like a bawdy house, disorderly house, dwelling house, house of correction, house of detention, house of ill fame, house of prostitution, public house, house of worship, house of representatives, and house of delegates.

A more thorough explanation:

An ancient house is a type of house that has been standing for a long time and has acquired an easement of support against the adjoining land or building in England. It is also known as a historic house.

The Tower of London is an ancient house that has been standing for almost a thousand years. It was built in the 11th century and has served as a royal palace, a prison, and a fortress.

Another example is the Shakespeare's Birthplace in Stratford-upon-Avon, England. It is an ancient house where William Shakespeare was born and spent his childhood.

These examples illustrate the definition of an ancient house as a type of house that has stood for a long time and has historical significance.
