this is not strictly a diy question but il go on anyway somebody might know,i have noticed around my area people have constructed garden sheds with one side using the dividing wall (removed of course) between gardens as footings .This i thought was a bit of a land grab as the sheds obscure the light and the eaves project over the garden. however this has not personally bothered me until now but my mothers neighbour is planning the construction of a large shed using the dividing wall (which hes just knocked down) as footings.when i tackled him about it he said the wall is his responcibility and can do whatever he likes on it.is he within his rights to use this wall and isnt planning permission required for the construction of a large brick outbuilding ?
