Who decides on the 180 day period?

What if one chooses to spend days 91 to 180 of 'period 1' in Spain, followed immediately by days 1 to 90 of 'period 2'?

EU rules and enforced by border agencies when they check your dates of entry and exit from the bloc, or deportation if caught in country. Remember in the no deal scenario as a non EU national you'll be subject to the same treatment as say an overstaying visitor from anywhere else in the worldsay.

Not sure what the sanction for overstaying might be, a fine and possibly a temporary ban from returning for a set period perhaps.

The rule is 90 days in ANY 180 so its not possible to tag two 90 day periods together for a 90-180-90 as you suggest.

Here’s a post Brexit scenario that puzzles me.

After visiting relatives in Britain, a UK citizen (with residency in Spain) arrives through the tunnel and enters the EU via Calais. They then drive down to their property in Quesada when, after a year or two, decide to drive back to the UK, following their footsteps via Calais.

How will the Gendarme handle that, as the ‘system’ shows us as an overstayer?

Technically, a stay of that length is, legal within Spain but illegal within the EU. In essence, we’d be prisoners in Spain, with our only exit via a non EU Country.

In fact, a cruise out of Barcelona, with stops elsewhere in Europe might be interesting

You will have a TIE (Tarjeta de Identidad Extranjera) which means you hand in your EU residents card (which is just showing you on the register of EU foreigners living in Spain).
The TIE is a valid travel document in the EU which will have your photo and (not sure about this) your fingerprint.

The same as the Spanish use their DNI for.
You will use your passport to get into UK but after that the TIE will be used for any Schengen country.
Your current EU resident card is not an ID document therefore you can't travel on it.
