Episode 231
Sunday, 16 November, 2025

In this episode of Keeping it Real Estate, Paul Tonkin and Joe Armstrong talk you through the recent judgment in Cooper & Powell v Ludgate House, also known as the Bankside Case. They touch on the interplay between section 203 of the Housing and Planning Act 2016 and rights of light, methods of assessing loss of light and the court’s approach to injunctions and damages and what they mean for future of rights of light claims – both for developers and for residents.
