Who is responsible For Which Fence?

I have this problem part of a fence came down and I am unsure who owns it. On my deeds both my front garden and back garden are completely lined in red.....

You may find the famous T marks are not there. The red line doesn't indicate ownership of the boundary. Reference to that may (or may not!) be in the accompanying written part of the deed.0 -
On your title plan, the part outlined in red just shows you which bit of land you own, as in the example here:

Right thanks. There is nothing in the deeds to say either way. As it's just one panel I do not mind this time but its a nightmare where the whole fence is concerned.0
