All land, even unregistered land is owned by someone, ultimately its the crown. Being unregistered just makes it harder to find the owner, but there will be an owner.  If you aren't the land owner you can't just chop trees, remove stumps, plough, or use the land for access.

 

Whatever you do is bound to be noticed by the users of the footpath.  

Railway land tended to be bought under a parliamentary statute so couldn't be successfully squatted. It may still be owned by the current rail residuary body if not having been sold on.

No , it was a John whose surname escapes me, he worked for Ted Baker

Ted used a truckload of Ken Tyrrell's old racing tyres to light a bonfire at a site we were clearing in Byfleet, I ran and hid.I could see the smoke from New Haw.

Yes they all worked for Ken until he went racing full time and we all started fires with tyres ;-(. at least the racing ones were softer ant less wire??

 

Ken's brothers were still in the trade in the Shere area circa 1987
