Public Road turned Private

There is a road in Windham that was treated by the town as a public road and the town attempted to stop maintenance & declare it a private road. The home owners sued the town & won. Because the town had set a precedence of maintaining the road, the court declared they must accept it as a public road and continue to maintain it. If you would like to research it, the case was held in the Rockingham County Court during the summer of 1989, the road is Doiron Road. The town appealed the ruling & lost again.
