Fence ownership

bo_rai_cho

I wanted to check if I have interpretated my Title plan for my house correctly

I have red edging on the left hand side of my garden fence which subtly overlaps the fence, so I think thats my fence, however it does overlap the right hand side. So is that my neighbours responsibility? Neither have a T mark oddly.

However there is a T mark at the front of the house boundary - is that just to indiciate everything within the red line is mine? Or everything line only with a T mark line is mine?

Why are you asking the question? Is it because you want to repair or replace some fencing? If so, the best approach might be to discuss and agree a plan with your neighbour.

The 'T' on the plan might be something you can bring into the discussion, but it isn't definitive.

More generally, a fence is owned by whoever put it up - and whoever put it up should have put it just within their own side of the boundary.

(So if a previous owner of your house put up a fence, that fence would have been included in the sale to you, so you now own that fence.)

There is no Title plan or T mark correct to the inch, so talk to neighbour and sort things out.

The owner of the fence is the person who put it there, is this a recently new built house?

The right hand side fence (green arrow) needs repairing/replacing in the image attached. Already discussed with neighbour who is adamant I need to get it repaired. However the red line shows an overlap on left hand side (which I think is my fence on the left) but not overlap on right hand side where the green arrow is which I assume means is his fence?

Also attached T references in the deed - hes agreed 50 50 split cost with me, but wants me to hire a tradesperson but should I if its not my land? Is my interpretation of the plan correct?

It was a new build before I purchased, so I am the second owner. When I moved in we agreed to go 50 50 on the fence at that time too, but I only did a few panels as I had a gardener over. And he agreed to contribute towards it. However does the red line indicate its not my boundary? The Title deed suggests I own everything in the T too.

Before you do anything, you need to understand the basic rules around fencing.
An ideal first step in your case would be to download the deeds for that neighbour (and your others, too, while you are at it!). 
The front of your property has 'T' marks, and is accompanied by wording in your deeds to explain - both are needed. So, you are responsible for your front fence.
What do the Ts and words say about your other fences? Precisely.
And another thing that isn't precise is the black boundary (not 'fence') lines, and the red edging.
So, another thing to try and work out is, where - as exact as you can determine - are the 'true' boundaries, Ie the black lines? 
Does the RH one touch your house, for example? What physical objects are along the road side - and pillars? His drive end? What's that square on the LH side?
Anyhoo, download. Agree now't until then.
