Richardson v Christie


George Fish Richardson was a lawyer. He inherited his father’s estates in 1843. In 1849 he had erected barriers to prevent the inhabitants from having access to the Common Meadow across his land. The vestry asked him to remove the barrier and when he did not do so instructed the Way Warden to remove it. Mr Richardson then sued the Way Warden in a well known case of Richardson v Christie. The case had settled some legal points relating to rights of way and the rights of the inhabitants to fish in the River Mole.
