Neighbour who has a private right of way is parking and leaving their things there

So he has a ROW to walk/drive up to a blank wall and then walk/drive back again. That's all. He cannot park there nor dump stuff there.7

But could walk up to it to plant roses on his little strip of land or paint the wall i would guess.canaldumidi said:So he has a ROW to walk/drive up to a blank wall and then walk/drive back again. That's all. He cannot park there nor dump stuff there.

Just made a quick sketch at work. Hope this makes things a bit more clearly. The brown bit is the right of way. The parking takes up 95% of the space and I have to squeeze to fit through. If I want to fit anything through there to take into/from back of garden or garage it's impossible.0 -

edit: my solicitor confirmed we own the land in brown in a previous email1 -

I’m renting the garage from other cofreeholder. I can access it from the back of the garden.Flugelhorn said:Is that you garage behind your garden? do you have access any other way to it?0
