How deep does my property go?

305 views

I have a house on 2 acres. I know the length and width of my property, but what about depth? If I dig 1ft down am I still on my property? 5ft? 1000ft? A 2 acre rectangle all the way to the Earths core? How deep would I have to go to no longer be on my own land?

Likewise there is also probably a limit to how high your property goes.

I seem to remember reading about when flying was a new thing, you had to seek permission to fly across properties. Eventually it led to a limit on how high your property goes, so now as long as it’s above a certain height, anyone is free to cross your land.

Although there’s such a thing as regional airspace, so perhaps (probably) it belongs to the government, above a certain height.
