Not a bad idea, but I'd suggest you invent a value, not a tag -  
something like property_owner (that's not a properly-thought-out  
suggestion, I'll let the tag mafiosi work out the best one). That  
way, you could have property_owner=National Trust, or  
property_owner=English Heritage, or property_owner=Cadw, and get all  
the meaning without overly cluttering the tag space.
