Right ive been doing some diggin round but i cant find a conclusive answer.
in my garden i have one side of the fence (right hand side) that belongs to me and apparenlty all of the back bit. Now the back fence has posts where another parties fence (blue line) join onto a fence post which i'm assuming is mine (in the diagram its posts 1 and 2).
my neighbour on the left (red line) has his own post so doesnt join onto post 1.
firstly i'd like to know whose responsibility is it for the upkeeping of those post.
My problem is the person at the back is a right cock and kicked up a fuss to fix post 1 as it was affecting his fence. surely he should be paying for some of the cost for repair, as we are sharing the post? Am i right to change the posts so only my fence is attached to it?
Also i've been thinking about doing away with the back fence and building a big brick shed up to the back partition boundary, but i'm not sure if i have to provide posts 1 and 2 to the fool at the back...regardless i think he's going to kick up a fuss anyway.
the problem with this is its a grey area. there must be some legal standing point?
