520 _aCA 21 June 1999. In 1973 the council served a notice of intention on M in respect of laying a sewage pipe on his land under the Public Health Act 1936 s15(1). In 1996 M blocked the pipe claiming trespass. The council issued proceedings to recover the costs of repair to the pipe. M counterclaimed that the pipe was not a public sewer but a drain, and therefore under statutory provisions there was no power to lay it. When the pipe was laid a trespass had been committed, and so he was entitled to block it. Appeal dismissed.
