Wikipedia

Premises

Premises are land and buildings together considered as a property. This usage arose from property owners finding the word in their title deeds, where it originally correctly meant "the aforementioned; what this document is about", from Latin prae-missus = "placed before".

In this sense, the word is always used in the plural, but singular in construction. Note that a single house or a single other piece of property is "premises", not a "premise", although the word "premises" is plural in form; e.g. "The equipment is on the customer's premises", never "The equipment is on the customer's premise".

Examples of use of premises

3. General practice premises are very clearly overstretched.
4. Baucus‘s compromise would undermine all those premises.
5. "Local courts use the ‘demand test‘ to assess premises applications, as well as considering the suitability and location of the proposed premises.
