Synopsis
The Preservation Of Open Spaces: And Of Footpaths, And Other Rights Of Way; A Practical Treatise On The Law Of The Subject by Robert Hunter presents a comprehensive account of the legal regime governing commons, footpaths, and public access in late 19th-century Britain. It clarifies what constitutes a common, and the variety of rights that may attach to land—appurtenant, appendant, or in gross—including pasture, estovers, turbary, and subsoil rights—and explains how such rights can be created or protected by grant, prescription, immemorial usage, or statute. The text traces how rights arise within the manorial system and how they are safeguarded against enclosure by parliamentary and administrative controls, notably the Commons Acts and related legislation. It offers practical methods for identifying rights through user checks, parish and manorial records, and historic inquiries, and it discusses the role of local authorities in preserving open spaces. Appendices provide templates for schemes, orders, and governance structures that regulated commons and public access during the period.
