FOTL and Other Misguided Folk

Because I find it funny…

Lewis v West Bromwich Building Society

Abuse of process of the High Court to frustrate possession orders in the County Court. Struck out with costs. Who is the mysterious ’Beresford’?

"Beresford" was the middle name of Rt. Hon. Alan B'Stard MP. I hope this does not indicate a connection to any prospective Tory politicians closer to home...

The only surprising thing I gleaned from the judgment is the "Nonsuch Close" exists.

It's not really surprising. Nonsuch was a large and impressive palace built by Henry VIII near Cheam, and so Nonsuch was seen as an aspirational name by the builders of mock-Tudor suburban estates. SW London* is full of streets with such connections: Tudor, Anne Boleyn, Aragon, Cranmer, Wolsey, etc

Here's an entertaining Twitter* thread by well known tweeting barrister @crimegirl that gathers examples of "oft cited cases that debunk Freeman on The Land nonsense" from various jurisdictions (UK, Canada, NI etc.)
