PARTY WALL

This article appears in Volume V20, Page 877 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: PAI-PAS
PARTY WALL , a building
term
  which, in England, apart from
special
  statutory definitions, may be used in four different legal senses (Watson v. Gray, 188o, 14 Ch. D. 192). It may mean (1) a
wall
  of which the adjoining owners are tenants in common; (2) a
wall
  divided longitudinally into two strips, one belonging to each of the neighbouring owners; (3) a wall which belongs entirely to one of the adjoining owners, but is subject to an easement or right in the other to have it maintained as a dividing wall between the two tenements; (4) a wall divided longitudinally into two moieties, each moiety being subject to a
cross
  easement, in favour of the owner of the other moiety. Outside London the rights and liabilities of adjoining owners of party walls are subject to the rules of common law. In London they are governed by the London Building Act 1894. A
tenant
  in common of a party wall is entitled to have a
partition
  vertically and longitudinally, so as to hold separately (Mayfair Property Co. v. Johnston, 1894, I Ch. 508); each owner can then use only his own part of the wall. By the London Building Act 1894, 5 (16) the expression " party wall " means(a) a wall forming part of a building and used or constructed to be used for separation of adjoining buildings belonging to different owners, or occupied or constructed or adapted to be occupied by different persons; or (b) a wall forming part of a building, and
standing
  to a greater extent than the projection of the footings on lands of different owners. Section 87 regulates the rights
' Many naturalists have held a different
opinion
 , some making it a woodcock, a godwit, or even the hazel-hen or grouse; see the discussion by Lord Lilford in This (1862), pp. 352-356.of owners of adjoining lands to erect party walls on the line of junction. Sections 88-90 determine the rights of building owners to deal with party walls by underpinning, repairing or rebuilding. The act also contains provisions for settling disputes ( 91-92), and for bearing and recovering expenses ( 95-102). Part VI. of the act 'regulates the structure and thickness, height, &c., of party walls.
