Wellington Properties Ltd v Second Duke of Westminster, Trustees of The Will of and Another: ChD 13 Nov 2018

Appeal by the Defendants against an order declaring that the flank wall of 39HP which adjoins the Garden is a party wall within the meaning of section 38(1) of the 1925 Act and of section 20 of the 1996 Act. The issue on the appeal is whether the judge was right to make those declarations on the true construction of a transfer whereby Grosvenor transferred 39HP, and in particular clause 3(b) of the Transfer. The Claimant is the transferee’s successor in title.
