Rights of light

Part of: High Road West compulsory purchase order

The development may interfere with certain rights of neighbouring properties, such as rights of light, which relates to the amount of natural light received by a property.

The compulsory purchase order (CPO) enables development to be undertaken, even where it may involve interfering with a relevant right.

At present, it is not possible to confirm which properties will be affected by the delivery of Phase A and to what extent, which will become clearer as the detailed designs progress. We have served notice of the CPO on all parties whom could potentially have their rights affected.

If the rights of your property are affected when the development takes place, you may be entitled to financial compensation.
