“(1)Subject to subsections (1A) to (1C), no person shall be required to grant any right over part only—
(a)of any house, building or manufactory, or

if he is willing to sell the whole of the house, building, manufactory, park or garden.
(1A)The [F1Upper Tribunal] may determine that—
(a)in the case of a house, building or manufactory, the part over which the right is proposed to be acquired can be made subject to that right without material detriment to the house, building or manufactory, or
(b)in the case of a park or garden, the part over which the right is proposed to be acquired can be made subject to that right without seriously affecting the amenity or convenience of the house.
(1B)If the [F2Upper Tribunal makes] such a determination, the Tribunal shall award compensation in respect of any loss due to the acquisition of the right, in addition to its value; and the owner shall be required to grant to the acquiring authority that right over the part of the house, building, manufactory, park or garden.
