The court held that the Tribunal erred in law by construing 'appertain' (and thus 'belong') in Condition 6 as limited to features located within the leased lots; even if 'appertain' equals 'belong', the phrase covers features outside the lots that are part and parcel of, substantially connected to, or indispensable to the construction or survival of the buildings on the lots. The Tribunal's Decision was quashed and the appeal remitted for factual reassessment by a differently constituted Tribunal.
