The first type is referred to as affirmative easement, e.g. A utility company may have the right to run a gas line through a person's property or pedestrians may have the right to use a footpath that passes through that property. A negative easement restricts the title-holder from doing something, e.g. An owner may not be allowed to build a structure in his garden that would block his neighbour's light.
