But even if it were, there is a question as to whether the land on
which the shed stands is registered. That seems likely at this point

different and you *don't* acquire title automatically by adverse
possession.


Thank you for that, Francis. I couldn't believe that I read all the previous
posts, and nobody had mentioned that (with the quite recent change in the
law) you can no longer obtain title through adverse possession. I had not
realised that that change only applied to registered land. Of course, round
where I am, everything pretty much is registered.

By the way, are you able to help me (on a professional basis) with a
compulsory purchase compensation claim?
