Dunmoore (West London) Ltd v Vanessa Donegan [2020]

In Dunmoore (West London) Ltd v Vanessa Donegan [2020] (Upper Tribunal Lands Chamber), Andrew Bruce acted for the Objector on an application to modify a restrictive covenant under s.84(1)(aa) of the Law of Property Act 1925. The Applicants were constructing an industrial park on agricultural land near Billingshurst, Sussex and sought to modify a covenant which prevented any building on a buffer zone of 200’ from the boundary of the Objector’s (extensive and valuable) home. The application was settled the last working day before the Upper Tribunal hearing on commercial terms.
