Fence ownership
our deeds don't specify who owns the adjoining fence with neighbour. We own back and right side as it adjoins a footpath. The posts and rails are on our side. Neighbour has pinned new feather edge boarding onto the existing using screwst leaving screws sticking through on our side . If this fence turns out to be ours and we need to replace how do we stand especially as the panels on the other side belong to the neighbour.
rotavate a garden question
I had a gardener come give me a quote to clear the weeds in an area of my garden where there is very little grass, he said he would strim it, rotavate it and then rake it to make it a bit more level. I thought good idea and I could probably even do that myself. However worried about the rotavator part as online it says it cuts up weeds and spreads them everywhere making it sound like it will be a nightmare in the future. should I really be concerned about the weed issue going forward.
