Proprietary Estoppel is not dead. It has its usefulness and is still relevant today. Please see Taylor Fashions Ltd v Liverpool Victoria Trustees Co Ltd [1984] QB 133. This case arises due to the restrictive nature of the requirements laid down in Willmott v Barber (1880). The word "unconscionability" is use in Taylor Fashions case to provide the defect/weakness that Willmott v Barber creates.

Here is a basic definition of "estoppel." Estoppel is a legal doctrine that prevents a person from adopting a position, action, or attitude, asserting a fact or a right, or prevents one from denying a fact inconsistent with an earlier position if it would result in an injury to someone else. There are three types of estoppel and the question is not really specific enough to render a more exact answer.
