The posting of the poster by H on D's wall amounts to trespass to land for which D has an
action in damages. This is because the wall in question is part of D's land and the posting of
the poster on the was is a direct infringement of the plaintiff's possession. At common law it
is trespass to place anything on or inland in the possession of another for example placing
rubbish against the wall or growing a creeper up the wall of another (Simpson V.
Weber(1925).
