• Privately Owned Land

    By Guest on 03rd Sep 2019

    I live on converted farm estate of 5 houses where communal front area is owned by the farmer. We have maintained area for 10tears to the front of our property. We have now been told it is private land and they are going to move the current boundaries to include the land with theirs so they can build on it. Can they do this?

    If they own it, then yes they can. You may wish to check with a property litigation solicitor as to whether there is any sort of claim you could make in court for equitable estoppel or similar, but from a non-contentious perspective they own the land so they can do with it what they wish (subject to any necessary planning, consents, etc).
