  • I appreciate your comments & really do know what it's like to have hard up young adults & how hard it is for them nowadays my own son included . I have worked full time for years, bought up 2 children on my own so yes i know hardship . Honestly now would you really just let your neighbour do anything that they desired to do if by doing it was partially on your property, possibly affecting your house value & privacy, whilst feeling such sympathy for them ?

    Is there garage really partly on your property?  That seems to be the bigger issue if its actually the case. 
  • Yes Davidmen , it IS in my garden & that's precisely my issue here

    Why don’t you just ask your neighbour to move his garage off your property? Problem solved! 
  • Onwards , it runs lengthways across both of our gardens half & half . the garage brick wall directly in my garden
  • Is the Garage IN your property? Is the Garage yours or theres?

  • allconnected ..right now that;s what i feel like asking them knock it down , i could have a bigger garden then !!
  • Why the hell is their garage in your garden?  Is it clearly shown on your deeds that they are encroaching on your land?  If so, why have you allowed it?  So many questions, it all sounds a bit bonkers to me.
