Do you know anything about these cases - Central London Property Trust Ltd v High Trees, Tool Metal Manufacturing v Tungsten, D & C Builders v Rees, Williams v Roffey Bros? Definitely worth to look at.

By the way, you should also look at the Pinnel's case and Foakes v Beer. Part-payment of a debt does not amount to valid consideration. Promissory estoppel is there to stop a person going back on the promise which is not supported by consideration and when it is inequitable.
