Right of Way in UK Law
-
Keefe v Amor
“
The grantee of the right could only object to such activities of the owner of the land, including retention of obstruction, as substantially interfered with the use of the land in such exercise of the defined right as for the time being is reasonably required.
-
Mills and Another v Silver and Others
“
It is to be noted that a prescriptive right arises where there has been user as of right in which the servient owner has, with the requisite degree of knowledge (which is not an issue in the present case), acquiesced. Therefore mere acquiescence in or tolerance of the user by the servient owner cannot prevent the user being user as of right for purposes of prescription.

Jelbert v Davis
“
Although the right is granted "at all times and for all purposes", nevertheless it is not a sole right. It is a right "in common with all other persons having the like right". It must not be used so as to interfere unreasonably with the use by those other persons, that is with their use of it as they do now, or as they may do lawfully in the future. The only way in which the rights of all can be reconciled is by holding that none of them must use the way excessively.

R v Oxfordshire County Council, ex parte Sunningwell Parish Council
“
-
Moncrieff v Jamieson and Others
“
A second necessary qualification to the proposition afore-stated would be that the grant of a right that required some positive action to be undertaken by the owner of the servient land in order to enable the right to be enjoyed by the grantee could not, in my opinion, be a servitude. The right to use the pool would be no more than an in personam contractual right at best.

British Railways Board v Glass
“
If there be a radical change in the character of the dominant tenement, then the prescriptive right will not extend to it in that condition. The obvious example is a change of a small doling house to a large hotel, but there has been no change of that character according to the facts found in this case.

Sweet and Another v Sommer and Another
“
Accordingly, the only real question in relation to this right of way is whether it was an overriding interest within Rule 258. Mr Sharples submitted that there were two reasons why it could not be. First, he submitted that there was little if any evidence of actual use by the owners of the northern field of the way at the time of the first defendant's purchase.
