    So now it seems Im having to pay for one and a half fences!. 
    It would seem you had offered this.
    As others have said there is no 'rule', if you have deeds then ownership is indicated with the letter T on the boundary line. 
    T marks on land registry plans usually indicate responsibility for maintaining boundaries, not ownership of any structures placed on or near those boundaries. 
    It is ownership and/or maintenance.

    The register will only show information concerning the ownership and/or maintenance of boundary features when this information is specifically referred to in the deeds lodged for registration. The most common marking on deed plans that relates to boundaries are ‘T’ marks. An entry referring to a ‘T’ mark is normally a statement concerning the ownership of a boundary structure or the liability to maintain and repair it.
