Advice please regarding fence

If that is where the boundary is then no, he can't.

It does seem obvious that that is the boundary due to the difference in height. You can double check by downloading the land registry plan from the land registry website.

If in doubt the fence could go a few centimetres in from the boundary, so the fence is wholly on your property.

The guy sounds like a nightmare.

That looks very dangerous to me. I would not even be thinking about buying that house, nor renting it, even with a 6 foot fence never mind a four foot one.
As for your neighbour, when your kids' ball goes over that four foot fence he is going to be a nightmare.
Move out.
Sorry but he has shown his colours already and for that you should be forewarned.

Yes, I'm starting to worry about this already. We have only been here 6 weeks.

His Grandson lives next door to him and he comes to play with my children most days, he is 6 so we happen to get along quite well, I don't want to fall out with anyone but it just seems so petty when it's something that should be first on all of our minds.
Like I said, there is no privacy for us, the other side if the garden is worse for privacy but we plan to fence that when we buy, if we buy lol.

Thank you for your concern Loanranger
