The judge held that the plaintiff had title and possession and that the public (including the appellants) had only a right to use the property as a public pedestrian passage, which did not permit long‑term occupation or encampment; accordingly the registrar's possession order was upheld and the appellants' counterclaims failed because the disputed items could be retrieved from the plaintiff.
