Easement in Europe
Definition of Easement
A servitude ; a right enjoyed by the owner of land over the lands of another. Examples are rights of way and rights of light. Easements are created by express grant or prescription (q.v.). The dominant tenement is the land owned by the possessor of the easement, and the servient tenement is the land over which the right is enjoye.
Easements are still capable of existing as legal interests (Law of Property Act, 1925, s. 1, sub-s. 2 (a)). See CoUs v. Home and Colonial Stores
