Baba Basra 6:5-6

Baba Basra 6:5

A person who owns a well inside another person’s house may enter to access it at a time when people normally enter, and he may leave at the time when people normally leave. He may not bring his cattle in to water them from the well; rather, he must draw water and water them outside. Each party – the owner of the house and the owner of the well – may place their own locks on it.

Baba Basra 6:6

A person who owns a garden inside another person’s garden may enter to access it at a time when people normally enter, and he may leave at the time when people normally leave. He may not bring in merchants, nor may he use it as a shortcut to another field. The one who owns the outer garden may plant on the path leading to the inner garden. If the court gave him a path on the side agreed to by both parties, then the owner of the inner garden may come and go whenever he wishes and bring merchants in but he may not use it as a shortcut to another field. In such a case, neither party has the right to plant on the path.
