About
Research
I research all areas of land law but am particularly interested in registration and issues surrounding the 'public face' of the register, and the interactions between statutory regulation and the fundamental principles of land law. I also research environmental law, focusing on national law regulation of the use of land and the of the judiciary in environmental adjudication. In particular I have focused on waste, contaminated land and habitats' protection. I also consider local and national issues in planning law.
