Rights of Light: The Modern Law

Rights of light are a distinctive and complex branch of the law of easements. When advising on property developments it is essential that practitioners have a clear grasp of the legal principles and their practical application.

Written by a team of specialist barristers and surveyors, this established work, which has been extensively cited in the courts, provides targeted coverage of rights of light, combining an explanation of the legal framework with practical commentary on procedure and remedies together with contributions from a surveyor on measuring and valuing loss of light.

This new edition has been extensively rewritten and expanded to reflect changes in practice and procedure.
