520 _aThe defendants (J) exercised their right to buy their properties on a large city hosing estate. The conveyances contained provision for them to contribute to upkeep of the area by way of service charges. J failed to pay these charges. Upon action by the council for the arrears, it was found that whilst the covenant in the conveyance was not void for uncertainty, it was unreasonable and unenforceable, as the upkeep of the area would benefit residents of the city as a whole. Appeal allowed.
