Ok, I was at my Sisters house this weekend just checking up on the property as she works away for quite long periods at a time....a few months ago she got new neighbours, a young couple, her daughter and her dogs.

My Sister owns her house, though the one next door is Council owned (as are some others in the Street).

Along the side of the house is a fence (not the panelled type the 'slat' old type) and, on the other side of the fence (in the neighbours are privets.

The young girl is having a fence erected at the back by the Council and she wants to pull the privets down (on her side) and had the cheek to pull me to one-side and say it's my Sisters responsibility to pay for it!!!!!

I told her my Sister is happy with the privets (which they have already cut down to half the size) and why should she pay just because 'the girl' is scared of he dogs getting out!!!!

This girl is a Council Tennant, it irks me that my Sister had to pay for her DG & CH etc but the council recently did most of the others in the street, also that this 17 year old has the cheek to demand payment for a fence.....that my Sister doesn't want!!!!

I don't want to argue with this girl as my Sisters is empty alot and i just don't trust her & her BF!

This is aside her letting her dogs crap all over my Sisters garden....

Does anybody know the way to find out about these things, i assume, if it comes to it i'll have to get her to dig the Deeds out etc....i just can't get over the cheek of her and her attitude, the 'world owes me a living attitude' (i don't think she's worked a day in her life)....

Anybody and useful information that could help before i give her a mouthful....



Anything to the left is your sisters responsibility - HOWEVER this does not mean theyt can demand a new fence. The key word is responsibility - if your sister wants to erect a wall/fence she can do so without their permission as it is her right, they cannot make demands on your sister.

if they have a dog it is their responsibility to make sure it is safe and has an enclosed area - therefore if they have removed something which means the dog can escape thats their problem - also if their dog harms anyone thet can e in trouble for not taking the necessary precautions to stop it.

it is neighbourly to share costs of such things but its probably only wise to do so with neighbours you get on with and you need to remember once one neighbour moves such an agreement no longer stands and the ownership reverts back to the deeds.

either way tell the to take a hike - if they want a fence they pay for it, but they wont be allowed to remove the boundary that is there they would have to build it alongside on their land unless your sister allowed them to replace what is there.


I can believe the cheek of them - my dad works for the council some of the stories he tells me....


Don't get mad, Don't get even ......because I don't care!

Luke will win! GO LUKE!
