In the case of Leaky v. National Trust (1980), the court ruled that the National Trust was liable for damage caused by a landslide on its property, which affected a neighboring landowner, Mr. Leaky. The judgment established that the Trust had a duty of care to prevent foreseeable harm to neighboring properties, even if the landslide was a natural occurrence. The court found that the Trust's failure to take reasonable steps to address the risks constituted negligence. This case set a precedent regarding liability for natural events on one's land that could affect others.
