Judgment Date: 13 Apr 2016
The extent of an exclusive prescriptive right to take cockles and mussels from a stretch of the foreshore on the east side of the Wash, on the west coast of Norfolk, was to be determined, on its western, seaward boundary, by reference to the lowest astronomical tide. The right did not extend to sandbanks which were not previously joined to the foreshore, as and when they became so attached.
