As the fault is most probably on your neighbours side consider the impact the weather may have had in the past few months -

E.g. In recent months in our area we've had above average rainfall leading to saturated ground. In turn this was affecting some of the paving and tree roots.
Then we had freezing temperatures on already saturated ground leading to more frost heave than would normally be expected.
Also consider what state your neighbours rainwater downpipe is in - one of our neighbours obviously has some sort of leak under a brick built outbuilding. The outbuilding is some 4 feet above neighbouring ground and you can see the brickwork deteriorating on a weekly basis because of the saturation and freezing. - I dread to think what the ground is like under the outbuilding.

As im a new user wont allow me to put link direct so put it all together in the browser and should work.

Thank you all so much for your responses, i have uploaded some pics on here, so everyone can see the situation, so hard to describe it if you get me. Hope this helps x

Reason we had to contact the council as the insurers cant send anyone to site till at least monday, so said we'd have to ring a council emergency line, which they look and visit and deem whether a building is safe or not ( imean its moved three inches over night?) x
