Neighbours caravan against our bedroom wall!

If the property is rented - have you knowledge of the owner if so maybe ask them if they can have a word with tenant

The fact it is rented also gives some hope.  It's worth checking with the property owner to see if a caravan can be parked there. Many wont allow it. 
I would think that it could well be a clause in the rental agreement especially as it may encourage more people being able to stay in the property.

My mums neighbours rented their house from the council a good few years ago,  they put their caravan in the front garden, not a driveway because they didn't have one. They were soon told to move it and threatened with eviction.

Our deeds specifically state that we are not allowed to park a static caravan or mobilehome on our drive way. Might be worth checking yours, surely the neighbours  would be similar. 

Well, that doesn't look like a static caravan or a mobile home. It looks like a standard touring caravan. 

Words.
Still worth a check of the deeds. The older the property the stranger things appear on the prohibition on the deeds.

The ones likely to get a mention is no keeping of pigs, no brewing or sale of alcohol, and not to run a brothel. Caravans were not a thing in the 1930s, and commercial vehicles were few and far between.

I've just checked our deeds.  In 1923 there was a covenant in place that no caravan can be parked on this land.  It also states that the neighbours would be entitled to forcibly remove any such caravan.  The deeds were updated on the next sale in 1931, to again state no caravan and add no business should be run from the property and it cannot be run as a poultry farm and no pigs. I'm guessing the caravans would have been for those travelling around the country for farm work. 

Good luck with attempting to forcibly remove it. I bet the laws have changed enough from the 30s to make any attempt a criminal act.
If you've got really deep pockets you could attempt to go via the courts but I don't rate your chances of success. 

This is an accident waiting to happen.

Apologies, I seemed to have caused confusion.  I was replying to Free Bear who said caravans were not a thing in 1930s.  According to my deeds (not the OPs), they were.  

The accident is by virtue of physical proximity and nothing to do with the deeds.

Update: I’ve acquired from the land registry a document missed by my conveyancer detailing how I actually own about quarter of that land to the side. (The agreement is an easement letting them use our part to access their windows and us to use their part to access their windows)
so now I have the added issue that our conveyancer missed an essential document!

I would seek advice from Fire Prevention Officer of your local Fire Service as caravan seems to be becoming a permanent fixture.Any sensible landlord will take onboard whatever that advice is.

I'm sorry but this post isn't very clear. Ownership and the benefits it confers is different from easements. I would think ownership might solve your problem. Even if the neighbour has access over the land you own, that would not normally give them the right to park there.

Quoting the relevant paragraphs (redacting ID detail) might help here.

Possibly, but I'm not sure the Fire Service will be keen to become embroiled in what is a neighbour dispute.

If the OP's further research shows that part of the land the caravan is parked on belongs to them, then surely the way forward now is to point out to the neighbour(/landlord) that there is an easement for window cleaning, but not for parking caravans?

Have you actually asked them to move it? If not why not?
