A woman who tripped on a housing estate footpath is awarded €110,000 by the High Court. The court hears that she caught her foot on a piece of concrete that was projecting upwards from the path. The Dangerous condition is found to be linked to root action, with evidence that the uplift is caused by the roots of a lime tree. The High Court’s decision centres on the unsafe state of the footpath and the resulting injury to the claimant. Both accounts describe the same incident and outcome, including the amount of compensation and the cause identified by the judge. The award reflects the court’s finding that the footpath was not safe for use and that the projecting concrete created a trip hazard. The judgment is reported as setting the compensation at €110,000 for the woman following the fall on the footpath in the housing estate.
