We continue our four-part Land Law series on easements with a detailed exploration of Rail Edinburgh Park requirements and how easements are created or acquired.
⢠Easements must show sufficient similarity to existing easements - you cannot create entirely new types
⢠Rights must not totally exclude the servient owner from using their land
⢠Failing to meet Rail Edinburgh Park requirements results in only having a license, not a proprietary right
⢠Easements can be created through grants (selling dominant land) or reservations (retaining dominant land)
⢠Legal easements can be created via express deed, necessity, or mutual intention
⢠Equitable easements arise from written contracts that don't meet deed requirements
⢠Equity won't assist with reservations as sellers should consider retaining rights when selling land
⢠Section 1.2 of the Law of Property Act 1925 defines interests capable of being legal easements
⢠Express grants in deeds create legal easements while written contracts create equitable ones
⢠Deeds require writing, clear intent, witnessed signatures, and proper delivery
