Garden Law Discussion

Hello. My neighbour's boundary is fenced off along a small path/lane. Outside the fencing, not on his land, on the path is a mature hedgerow, which he does not tend. The lane is privately owned but I'm not sure who owns it, if anyone, and is merely a right of way for residents living down it. The p...

Says who?

Me.................and I stand by it.

Over the decades, I've seen and worked on literally hundreds of 'tied cottages'.

Why do you think this is relevant to your dispute?

Although the easement element of the situation may not be relevant, the way the properties were laid out and used 'when first built', in all likelihood will be a mirror image of each other.

Have you tried contacting any of the previous occupants of any of the properties within that complex, there may be dateable photos that will assist. There are only three other residents, one of which we are in dispute and the other two moved here after 2010. Im going to speak to local farmers to fi...

Hi. In response to arborlad, the effects include (not limited to) having vehicles, including delivery vans, entering a residential close and having to cross a footpath to park up, as well as creating back road through traffic behind the shops, and the whole scene now has a back-of-the-shops look to...

Hello. I'm be very grateful for advice please. The scene. A small row of shops in a residential area with access to the rear of the buildings at one end. The other end is fenced off except with a small gate for people to pass. This end is the point of issue as the end shop closest to it has recentl...

My deeds say the fence between my garden and his is a party fence.

Have you conveyed this to the neighbour?

5. Get the neighbour to agree the position of the boundary has now changed because he's got cack handed fencers in who can't follow an existing boundary line - the fence remains a party fence. That, in reality is what has happened...............although the intention of the neighbour and builder wo...

There are all manner of devices for keeping gates open - some can be locked.

Have you rejected this for some reason - what keeps the gate shut at the moment?

And again tonight. Swung into my drive, parked my car and up he comes and shuts the gate. I told him I was capable of shutting the gate myself and any more of this rubbish and I will remove the gate. He came running over to me again so fast he almost tripped himself up ‘You can’t’, I told him I cou...

The landlord has stated that because his grandchildren play on the drive I have to keep it shut at all times. The landlord is completely wrong, if he wishes to have a safe play area it must be on land he owns and can enclose, not on land he doesn't own and has vehicular rights of way over it. What ...

One thread only please: My deeds say the fence between my garden and his is a party fence. He replaced it without my consent and says I can’t touch the new one. Is this allowed. The old fence was a panel fence between wooden posts. The new one is a concrete post with the good side facing him. I’ve ...
