There are instances where people have for many years been permitted to use shortcuts cutting through neighbouring land.
This creates an easement which basically confers upon such a person the right to use or restrict the use of the neighbour's land in some way.
To prove the existance of the easement in such circumstances, there should be a long uninterrupted use of the land.
Easements may also be created by law, express grant or reservation in writing, and implied grant.
