    Are you sure it's their fence to fix? On our deeds it mentions who's responsible for maintenance of each fence, so might be worth asking the landlord to check as it could be theirs. 
    No it doesnt. it tells you who's responsible for the boundary. Nothing to do with the fence
    I know our deeds say exactly who is responsible for the fence, it is the actual fence, not the boundary .   
    Only if a covenant might say that

    Yes it is their fence
  • Sadly their garden is in such a disarray, with the fence falling down, and their garden being overrun with plants, trees, etc.. It’s really a mess and due to that it’s now attracting rodents.
    A haven for wildlife; it will attract birds and butterflies.
