Dispute is about the right to enfranchise under the 1967 Act, which was exercisable in specified circumstances where a ‘building’ is subject to a long lease. The landlord said that the two-storey, long lease building in Palmers Green, which has a greetings card shop on the ground floor with a recently converted flat above, was not ‘a house reasonably so called’ within the meaning of s.2(1).
