You’ll need to look at the covenants benefitting your property. Usually when there’s shared gutter there is a covenant that either the party with the down pipe has to keep it clear or that the other party can enter the neighbouring land to clear it.
Spot on. Having checked my deeds, it did indeed say that I could do that, which I did.

I'd be careful with this and have it dealt with soonest. Had a similar issue with my place – the old gutter was replaced a couple of years ago, but the leaks from it affected my property, with the damage only becoming visible a short time ago. I had dry rot fungus in the room affected, and several walls had to be treated and replastered – a major, very disruptive job.0
