Two related but separate questions:
- Our neighbour erected scaffolding to the rear of our house without our permission (huge back story relating to our chimney which her builders removed). There is no tag on the poles and she refuses to tell us who the scaffolders are or to provide contact details. She also had them put it up on a Sunday morning when she knew we were out. What rights do we have? Can we employ a second firm to remove the scaffolding poles and place them in her garden? How else can we get them taken down?
We are the middle of a row of five Victoriam terraces. A side passage runs between houses 2 and 3 (us) which 2 and 3 own half of but which all five have a right of access over. Thus, the fences we have are not on our boundary. Our neighbour has taken hers down and her builders now use the passage as an extension of her garden. We also have no privacy and we are concerned about our children playing outside (we cannot replace our own fence, damaged by her, also due to her building work). I know she wanted to do an extension under Permitted Development, but it was refused, and she was intending to put a brick wall up as part of the house instead of the fence. Is there any way we can make sure a fence is put back in place?
