Neighbour's extension

Agreed, yet many housing estates put up in the late '70s to mid '90s, have "detached" houses that are so close together that no maintenance can be carried out.

When we were housing hunting (1977) there was a carton book on the subject. In one, people were trying extricate a dog which had got stuck between two houses. "I knew we shouldn't have bought a detatched house."

That isn't relevant.

It is something the *council* can use to refuse consent.

Not relevant.

Not so.

Yes... so I saw.

All we have along the boundary is a retaining wall, and I am not even sure it has proper foundations that span into the neighbours' land as it is very low.

Good idea to ask the planne to come and have a look.

BTW, just noticed on the plans that the path on our side has dimensions next to it. Nice to know that they helped themselves to our property without permission to measure it...

Also, my wife came back from work this evening to find the neighbour walking along that narrow path, on our land, looking at something...

They are asking for trouble, and we may well give them to them.

Corse it is when the new wall faces his wall with no windows.

But it hasnt refused consent.

Wrong, that means that the fundations for the neighour's new extension does not need acces to his land.

Fraid so, the legislation others have cited provides for that access if it is required.

Just to re-iterate, Planning Permission is /not/ permission to build. They cannot just do things to your wall without your permission.

Why not post this to uk.legal.moderated?

Will do. Thanks

So rodtard has yet to learn about repointing.

When done properly in the first place, it doesnt need repointing.

Mine is just as good as it was in the firs year, 50 years later.

And the new one is rendered, that doesnt need repointing.

lol

You never could bullshit your way out of a wet paper bag.
