What is Possession and Title to Land about?

This chapter examines the nature of the title that is acquired through taking possession of land. It argues that the traditional view, which is that mere possession is not a source of freehold title, is plausible only if one overlooks how the law has evolved. Today, one can acquire a fee simple estate simply through taking possession. The chapter seeks to marshal new arguments in support of this claim. Its main strategy is to analyse the incidents of the possessor’s interest with a view to showing that it has the core features of a fee simple estate. It also considers the scope of the rule and analyses a number of objections.
