What is a gore of land?

Answer 1

The term gore means to portions of land areas that do not conform to boundaries found in land surveys based upon imprecise measurements and other ambiguities of metes and bounds. A gore occurs where descriptions in larger administrative boundaries of adjacent jurisdictions or, large parcels, all fail to include some portion of land between them, forming an unclaimed, triangular "sliver" of land.

Answer 2

A gore of land is a triangular piece of land typically located at the intersection of two or more properties or roads. It is often an irregular or leftover piece of land that does not fit neatly into a standard parcel shape. Gores are commonly found in surveying and property boundary situations.
