Our neighbour has a boundary dispute with us. Back in May 2021 his solicitors sent us a letter explaining that you have your bins on my clients land and a gate on the rear of your property that encroaches on my clients land. You need to remove the bins and stop using the gate as you will be responsible for any damages to my clients land. 

We replied back to the neighbours solicitors with our evidence explaining that the gate has always been at the rear of my property since the house was constructed in the 1980’s and provided a historical photograph that belonged to my other neighbour as proof, we also attached a planning permission document that was granted by the council with the councils stamp on it which was granted to the previous owner of my property that had an extension done on the property in year 2005 and we also gave a surveyors report to prove that the land does not belong to the neighbour. After that the solicitor sent us no more further letters and no further actions has been taken against us and our bins are still on the disputed land and we are still using the gate at the rear of my property. 

Because it’s been almost 4 years since the solicitors letter. Does that mean legally the case has been closed?

Sorry the neighbour is still being a nuisance but he’s not backing off and has not instructing the solicitor to take any more further actions against us. 

Also we moved into this house in 2012 and the nuisance neighbour moved here in 2018 snd before 2018. No neighbours on my street has had any issues with us. 

ITs not closed as such, they aren't suddenly blocked from raising it in the future. However I'd forget about it for now and let sleeping dogs lie..
