The Duchy of Cornwall (No. 2) Act 1844 (7 & 8 Vict. c. 105), sometimes called the Duchy of Cornwall (Limitation of Time) Act 1844,[1] is an act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom.
As of 2025[update], the act was partly in force in Great Britain.
Sections 71–80 of the act were repealed by section 34(4) of, and the schedule to, the Limitation Act 1939 (2 & 3 Geo. 6. c. 21), which came into force on 1 July 1940.[2]
The whole act, except sections 39, 40, 53 to 70 and 92, and the definitions of "Conventionary Tenant" in section 92 of the act, and the schedules, was repealed by section 1(1) of, and part IV of schedule 1 to, the Statute Law (Repeals) Act 1978.
