Abstract
Comments, from an English law perspective, on the Irish High Court judgment in Dooley v Flaherty on whether the defendant's period of adverse possession of a dilapidated property, that commenced on the termination of an oral periodic tenancy, had been interrupted by the paper owner's acts in: (1) accessing the roof via a neighbour's attic to effect a repair; (2) arranging for an employee to repair some roof slates; and (3) insuring the property.
