It should say on your deeds which fence is your responsibility. Our deeds are vague but it suggested that the fence we replaced was actually next doors. Fortunately, the neighbour thought otherwise so we kept quiet.

Next doors 20+ yr old ivy bush consumed the fence between our properties. We didn't realise how bad it was until we cut back about 1 ft of branches extending into our garden. The fence was in a terrible state with several gaping badger, fox and cat access points.
We aimed to build a robust fence panel feat. concrete kicker into the existing concrete posts to avoid;
- The need to remove / disturb next doors ivy
- Future ivy intrusion
- Badgers and foxes destroying the fence + entering garden
Unfortunately the flimsy and rotten fence was structurally integral to the ivy and on removal the entire bush collapsed. We have lost the friendship of our neighbour but gained a solid boundary. Final panels to follow this weekend but this is the completed work to date.

The road was dug up (milled) last summer and a 20mph speed limit was imposed due to the resulting loose stones. I assumed they were half way through the resurfacing process but after about 2 months they painted road markings and removed the speed limit.
I'm glad I'm not the only person who was baffled by this! I can only assume they ran out of money. Either they viewed the current surface acceptable until more funding arrives, or perhaps the rough terrain dissuades people to drive fast? It's a pain in the arse, literally.
