Legal Descriptions

Section 7 of 17

The north-south line (the light blue line in the image) is the main reference line. Metes-and-bounds descriptions always begin with either north or south, followed by a number of degrees (up to 90 degrees). The final direction—east or west—shows which way the line turns from north or south.
