The right to light is a complex legal concept that can significantly impact property rights, particularly in urban areas with dense development. It is a common law right that protects the access of natural light to a property. If a property has been receiving a certain amount of light for a significant period, it has the right to continue receiving that level of light. Any obstruction to this light, such as a new building or extension, can potentially infringe on this right.
