Appurtenance
Appurtenances are things that belong to and go with something else, the appurtenance being less significant than what it belongs to. The word ultimately derives from Latin appertinere, "to appertain".

Appurtenance
(n.)
That which belongs to something else; an adjunct; an appendage; an accessory; something annexed to another thing more worthy; in common parlance and legal acceptation, something belonging to another thing as principal, and which passes as incident to it, as a right of way, or other easement to land; a right of common to pasture, an outhouse, barn, garden, or orchard, to a house or messuage. In a strict legal sense, land can never pass as an appurtenance to land.
