In order to help keep the Forum a useful, safe and friendly place for our users, discussions around non-MoneySaving matters are not permitted per the Forum rules. While we understand that mentioning house prices may sometimes be relevant to a user's specific MoneySaving situation, we ask that you please avoid veering into broad, general debates about the market, the economy and politics, as these can unfortunately lead to abusive or hateful behaviour.

Has anyone ever come across this law before?
There's some sort of common usage law which allows you to claim that by custom and practice a piece of land that was a public right of way or open has been used as a garden or private path for I think it's 7 years and you can then claim it.
Any advice gratefully received
