Isaac Newton Trust Academic Career Development Fellowship

Interests

 

Rhiannon’s research interests lie at the intersection between public law, land law and environmental law. In particular, she is interested in understanding how public authorities are able to legally engage with land, shaping how land can be administered for different forms of public benefit. As part of this, Rhiannon has spent notable time considering the modern legal history of public land administration.

Rhiannon is currently developing her doctoral research on the legal evolution of National Parks in England and Wales into a monograph which considers the development of legal frameworks that enabled public bodies to administer land, ultimately culminating in the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act 1949.
