What does Deed mean?

Deeds are written agreements but differ from contracts in that the limitation period is 12 years and consideration is not required. There are very few categories of transactions that require execution by deed but they are transfers of land, leases, mortgages and charges, sales by mortgagees, appointments of trustees, powers of attorney and gifts.
