I have an English Language degree (look at me, etc.) but I'm struggling to get my head around this...
"AND the Purchasers to the intent that the covenant hereinafter contained shall bind the said property into whosesoever hands the same may come for the benefit of the adjoining and neighbouring lands belonging to the Commissioners or any part or parts thereof hereby for themselves and their successors in title covenant with the Commissioners that they will observe and perform the stipulations and restrictions set out in the Second Schedule hereto. THE SECOND SCHEDULE above referred to THAT the Purchasers shall not be entitled to the benefit of any covenant or reservation in any Conveyances or Leases made or granted by the Commissioners of lands and premises adjoining opposite or near to the said property enabling the Commissioners to deal as they may think fit with adjoining or neighbouring lands without regard to the light and air enjoyed by the owner lessee tenant or occupier of the land comprised in the said Conveyances or Leases nor the benefit of any restrictive covenant stipulation or condition or any other covenant reservation right condition or obligation contained in any Conveyances or Leases made or granted by the Commissioners of the said lands and premises adjoining opposite or near to the said property or elsewhere in the said County Borough of Croydon or adjoining or adjacent Parishes."
I might be wrong but I think it's essentially saying "Don't do anything that messes with your neighbours' light and air, and they can't do it to you"?!? If so, why can't they just say that? Seems like they're trying to be deliberately obtuse, the feckers.

I may be cynical but I suspect solicitors who write that cra....legal stuff are paid by the word |  |

Simple answer to that is not to buy a flat.
You're welcome.... |  |

Croydon?!!!????
Croydon? |
Uh oh, here we go again!
Croydon is our council, but the flat is in Crystal Palace. This won't bother you though, I'll be Croydon in your eyes, just like I was Penge on the other side (even though I was also in Crystal Palace). You silly old sausage. | |

I was being slightly disingenuous, they explain it in simpler language later. Just thought this bit was funny. | |

Tell me about it. My house deeds are full of so much sh1t that sounds a lot more complex than it is.
I say that, I’m still not convinced I know what it is. I asked my conveyancer to explain it like I’m an idiot and her words were ‘to be honest it’s not very clear, I don’t really know’. Cheers then, I’m glad I’m paying a couple of grand for this. |  |
