Thank you. I think my next action will be to send a letter saying I’m removing it. Then remove it and put it back on his property.

Neighbour fencing off lane

by Flaming Jo

Hi All

I'm new here, hoping for some advice.

An "unregistered" laneway runs along the bottom of my property, providing vehicular and/or foot access to about 9 houses. We don't open onto it, but drive into it to turn our car for easier access to our angled driveway....

Erecting something on someone else's property when you cannot claim to have a better title than the legal owner, means that only the legal owner of the land can sue for trespass, because what has been placed on the land belongs to the land, not the person who erected it on the land.

Thanks for that. He moved in about 18 months ago, I’ve been using it as a turning circle since 2006 with no problem. Does that give me any rights? Land registry says that it’s unregistered land.

On a practical side, he’ll probably whinge and moan if I take it out - he might call police...

Isn't it just a case of sending the notices out? If they don't respond then that's their problem.

My understanding is there is no actual 'agreement' to be made as such, just a notification and its acceptance or otherwise.

Reply to Party wall from shared freeholders

by fireinarcade

The party wall surveyor realised last week that he sent the original notification to only one of the owners so has now restarted the entire process with both owners names on the notification. He is suggesting we go by the book and run the process through. He says that if the neighbour's sale goes through...

Did you made an application to Land Registry for a Search of the Index map to establish that the lane remains unregistered?

Can you verify from that person's register of title whether there is a right of way granted over the back road for his property?

Someone who takes possession...
