Thorpe v. Frank and another [2019] EWCA Civ 150
Edward Denehan appeared for the respondents in the very recent Court of Appeal case of Thorpe v. Frank and another [2019] EWCA Civ 150 in which the Court of Appeal held that the mere laying of paving slabs on the ground may constitute adverse possession of that ground enabling the person laying the slabs to be registered as proprietor of the ground. It is thought to be the first case where such acts alone have been held to constitute adverse possession.
