Last month, the local paintballing club approached Grace with a view to buying the woodland for their games. They offered her £100,000 which Grace agreed to. She and the head paint-baller, Amin, had shaken hands on the deal and to confirm their arrangement, Amin had written on the back of an old envelope:
‘This confirms what we agreed on 15th June 2019.’
Both Grace and Amin signed the back of the envelope.
The paint-ballers have since spent £20,000 digging trenches and erecting shooting platforms but now Grace has decided that she would rather not have a lot of noisy people running around the woodlands on Sunday mornings. She has informed Amin that he and the paint-ballers will no longer be able to use the woodland.
Discuss whether a valid land contract has been created in this case and if so if it is binding on Grace.
