Re Britford Common Britford Green (‘the land’) formed part of the Manor of Britford. The land and the lordship of the manor
had been in the same ownership throughout living memory. The land was unenclosed, uncultivated and
had lain open to the adjoining roads throughout living memory. The land was registered as common
land under the Commons Registration Act 1965. The appellant, who was the owner of the land and the
lord of the manor, objected to the registration.
