| - From the earliest published covenant: "The Demesne of Lyonesse was founded . . . for the purpose of creating and enjoying beauty, both of nature and human construction, and to enjoy good company in peaceful surroundings. . . . The name LYONESSE was chosen in attempt to capture the ancient, old world, mythological, mystical, honourable, moral, and mysterious penchant of people who have a desiderata for such imagery and lost, forgotten ages." To this end, the Demesne has significant restrictions on building. In general terms:
* No harsh modern architecture
* Usually no roads or other means of transport
* Usually no vehicles -- some exceptions for horse-drawn, magical, outré, or fantastical vehicles
* "This is not the Real World; toilets, kitchens, roads, airports are not necessary."
* No commercial activity except in specifically set aside areas
* No commercial or obstructive signs, billboards, or rotating prims
* There are 16 bullet points in the Building Code.
