Textbook on Land Law

The authors provide a modern and practical approach to the subject of land law with the emphasis on the law as it is rather than as it was, which has proved attractive to law students on a wide range of courses. The text takes account of recent statutory and case law developments. There are detailed accounts of the introduction of commonhold and also of the impending changes in the land registration system. The impact of the Human Rights Act 1998 is considered throughout the text. Discussion of recent case law developments includes consideration of the decisions of the House of Lords in Southwark LBC v Mills, Ashurst Fraser Ltd v Gloucester CC, Etridge and Pye v Graham and the Court of Appeal judgment in Gillet v Holt.
