Prompted to ask this by the other fence question. Due to the way the gardens here align to each other, the fence is a patchwork of different styles (and heights) although it is mostly in an ok condition. It's not entirely clear who is responsible for each bit either, the deeds are not clear on this point.
We are planning to build a new(1), more uniform fence *within* our boundary, how can we ensure that there won't be any future disputes about the boundary line or ownership of the existing fence? Is leaving the original fence intact sufficient evidence to prevent this, or is there anything further we would need to do? The boundary of the plot is marked on the deeds.
(1)It's mostly for cosmetic reasons, if there are likely to be complications then we won't bother ;)
