Abstract: Deriving support from a Party Structure is by no means uncommon. Equally, service of the relevant Party Wall notices in relation to building into a Party Structure is neither surprising nor unusual. However, while building a load-bearing member into a Party Structure is perfectly within the realm of the Party Wall etc., Act, the acquisition of easement of support is outside its scope. The aim of the following paper is to give some clarity to this area, and offer advice in terms of evidence-gathering for eventual and formal acquisition of such a legal right.

Keywords: design of load-bearing structures; correct application of The Party Wall etc.; Act 1996; acquisition of easement of support from Party Structures (search for similar items in EconPapers)
