Document background
An Ingress And Egress Easement Agreement is essential when one property owner needs guaranteed access rights across another's property. This document is commonly used in situations where properties share driveways, access roads, or pathways. Under English and Welsh law, the agreement must clearly define the extent of access rights, specify maintenance obligations, and comply with statutory requirements for land interests. The agreement creates a legally binding arrangement that runs with the land, meaning it remains effective even when properties change ownership. It's particularly important for landlocked properties or where shared access arrangements need to be formalized.
