I also understand that this is the case; but the Highway authority have
complete control over what goes on on that land; and I do not think that the
owners have many rights (other than mineral rights below their surface
presumeably)as a result of such ownership.

      I recall a previous thread which suggested that adjoining land
owners own 
      their frontage to the centre of the highway. I find this incredible
but if it 
      can be argued in court someone will be wearing egg. 



If my memory serves me correctly then Humberside's Solicitors argued that
in the Patterson case. I believe it to be true but have never had any
problem that hinged on the fact.
