Access arrangements like that should be in the deeds of both properties.
It's a little different but my parents back onto a cricket club. They had had access theough their back gate, down the edge of the cricket pitch and out onto a nearby road for 30+ years until the cricket club added a locked gate at the road end. A couple of letters and a bit of paperwork and my parents now have legal right of way along that path, it is written into the deeds of both and whoever buys my parents house gets the access too.

Now the neighbours have been there for 28 years, and they (very kindly) laid out the path and box-hedges that delineate the edge of the path, and are unequivocal about the owner of the house that I'm looking at being able to pass across their land to get to the land associated with the house.
But. If we fell out...
I don't know whether 200 years of using that access has any weight, or whether this is the sort of situation that would buy a Brommers analogue a new RS6, if there was an epochal falling out.
