Boundary issue - vendors backtracking - advice please!

So, why didn't the vendors sort this out at the time (when they got home from work!). 

Sounds like a dispute - although it's a very minor difference and the strip of land's no practical use to either house it might mean you have a difficult person to contend with.

Why can't the vendor sort this out and move that kerb border to reflect the original boundary?

I think the issue is the person that did it is dead and the new neighbours moved in 5 years ago. 

They did agree to just changing it on the land registry but have now backtracked, presumably because they don’t want to spend the money or because it’ll take too long. And are now denying it was ever an issue in the first place.

Tell them to update land registry or contact their neighbour to reinstate the correct boundary.
