Parking easements

Barsby, A

Parking easements - 2002 - Solicitors' Journal 146(22) 14 June 2002, 542-543 (2) .

Considers the current state of the law on the right to park as an easement. Parking has become a valuable and contentious right. It can be seen as a particular form of storage of goods on land. As it is not a homogeneous activity the law varies according to what is actually involved. Analyses separately parking in a parking space and parking in a larger area. Gives background on easements of storage and an example bringing in "Batchelor v Marlow" which states that parking that monopolises an area of land is too great an interference to subsist as an easement.
