520 _aCA 10 July 2002. The respondent (J) was the tenant of some rough grazing land. He paid rent until 1973, after which he remained on the land without paying rent. Initially this was with the agreement of M, the agent for the then freeholder, on that basis that he would provide caretaking services for another property. The freehold title passed to Mr and Mrs Darlington. During their period of ownership, J paid no rent and was not expected to carry out caretaking services. In 1992 the land passed to the appellant W. J claimed title to the land by way of adverse possession. The claim was allowed. W appealed. "Held", the appeal was allowed.
