Squatters rights in Family home

    Hi there,

    I have a question regarding squatters rights?

    Any opinions are welcome.

    The story is as follows:
    My father and my uncle, grew up with other siblings on the family farm, with a decent enough amount of land(around 350 acres). My Grandfather left the farm divided up between both of them. My uncle was given land at one side, and my father was given the land at the other side. Now here comes the tricky bit. The family home, farm yard, sheds, etc. are on my fathers land. But my uncle has been living there since my grandmother died a number of years ago.

    Needless to say there is a history there and he has only recently (2 years) started taking care of his own bills. Up until recently all his bills were taken care of by my parents as was the business side of running a farm.

    This man(my uncle) is a bitter horrible man and is not on speaking terms with my parents or my brothers and sisters, but sure that's irrelevant.

    Is there any way of getting him off the land?
    What rights does he have?
    What rights does my father have?

    I am not looking for advise, just opinions.

    Thanks in advance.
