1Opinion of the CourtBevilacqua, C.J.

This is an appeal by the plaintiff from a judgment for the defendants in a civil action to enjoin the defendant 1 from passing over the plaintiffs road. The plaintiff also sought damages, and the defendant counter-claimed for damages and an injunction against interference with her right to use the road. Trial was held before a justice of the Superior Court sitting without a jury. The trial justice ruled that the defendant had acquired an easement appurtenant by prescription and entered an order permanently enjoining the plaintiff from interfering with her right-of-way. We affirm.
