They are just awkward b**ggers who think they are miles above everyone else


Just tell him tough and demand he provides evidence thay he hasn't moved the boundary without permission. If he can't then insist he moves his driveway back onto his side and makes yours good - put it into writing and if you're feeling flush get a solicitor to write it for you.

Have a look on garden law boundaries forum, they have some good advice on there. Check your house insurance for cover against legal fees for such occasions as you may be able to claim any costs incurred.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Ithink all of this advise is excellent for you, whaty i would add is that if he is as awkward as you suggest then be careful as he may just go ahead one day. If he does, then immediately instruct a solicitor and the local planning department who should halt all work until a resolution is found.
Good luck, and keep us posted.

I hate neighbour disputes, but think i am about to get into one myself, over niose though!!

My mother had to sell a vacant lot to the neighbour after he put half his driveway on our land. This piece of property was not used by us and by the time we discovered the situation five years had passed and he claimed the encrotched portion as his legally. The lot was then too narrow for a building permit.
