Papers lost...means that land is lost. Unless you claim adverse possession. This land is now mine because I have here /worked it for xx years, in peace and no one else has claimed it. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/property/article-1348664/HOME-TRUTHS-How-long-I-claim-land-own.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/property/article-1348664/HOME-TR... But then it maybe tricky if you claim 451,222 acres or whatever.

- onetimemanytime 8y agoI think it exists so owners develop /work the land. Use it lose it. Keeps them on their toes and tax coming. Not much use to the state if I buy 10k hectares, leave as it is, and 800 years from now my descendants claim it.
