Sound advice, thanks! :)

Well, that's why I'm here :giggle:, my understanding is if it's been used without force, stealth or permission for over 20 years it can be a right of way even without being in the deeds. At the moment it looks like it's been used with permission. Another problem is if the land is landlocked...

Thank you, I like your positive outlook, you can stay! :ROFLMAO: On the other hand you've got people saying point blank avoid buying an ex council house and not even caring to provide a reason. I really appreciate your advice!

https://www.swlaw.co.uk/site/blog/property-blog/prescriptive-right-of-way The picture attached, red is our boundary, shows a possible path? But nothing stating this is a path or a right of way in either our deeds or the neighbouring (council) deeds. This is possible, I agree but also wonder...

How come?

One of the conditions for claiming a prescripted right of way: has not exercised the right by force, stealth or with any consent from the other landowner. It would seem that consent is given on every occasion in our case.

Thanks, yes indeed that is my fear that in the very highly unlikely event we get horrible neighbours who are aware of this then we could have it being used at 3am just for the sake of it. However, in our situation there is no mention of a right of way in the title deeds, and right now it's not...

Thanks, are these measurements in the title deeds? Seems very specific! Also. If you had a gate to the rear of your garden to some unadopted land with easy access to a footpath I bet you would rather use this than go through somebody else's garden right? I mean I bet it's the case that neither...

We are awaiting the searches but definitely we will make that a request for the solicitors, So the neighbouring garden has the gate into ours and a gate at the rear onto the unadopted land out the back, but no gates to the further houses. I suppose I'm just being impatient when the solicitors...

Hello! In the process of purchasing a property, there is (what appears to be) a right of way through the middle of the garden for the terraced house to the right (we are end terrace). I've attached picture of the title plan, the title deeds says nothing about a right of access. Now, next door...

There are some but.... They aren't the best looking and it's hard to see it make much improvement, was wondering if I could cover it with stone or something but that might make it look worse

Thanks, yes all the same in about 20 different houses on a small council estate. In which case if we did change the units we would probably opt for one large window between the two... Thanks again!

Not sure what you mean, the whole front of the house? Cheers :)

Hi, new to the forum and a new homeowner (just finishing the buying process). Our soon-to-be home has 2x full height uPVC windows at the front with.... White uPVC board at the bottom. Personally I don't like it, any suggestions on how to make it look a bit nicer? The panel is not visible from...
