Access path that I own. Use of strimmer on weeds growing up on my wall.

I live and own outright an end terrace house. I own the path alongside it but there is a shared entrance, access which I have allowed to get to a piece of unused land at the back. Weeds, mainly dandies, do grow alongside my wall. I always just try to rip of the leaves to tidy up. Recently the property next door, which is a public building, has started strimming the weeds. The person doing it strims my pointing as well and I'm furious about it.

I asked him today to stop doing it and he said, Oh didn't you want me to do it? I replied: You didn't ask - which he didn't. I asked him not to do it again. This is the second time he did it. I did go in after the first time to request that they don't do it.

AIBU?

You can legally mount a curb to park so long as you park 50cm from the main path.

Sounds like they added that land beyond your wall so that a) you could easily do maintenance work on your wall etc and b) they added the access clause so they could use it for maintenance (as you said the scaffolders had to ask permission).
Still doesn’t mean anyone can hack away at your weeds.

I think we need a diagram OP. Them’s the rules.

CarrotSticks23 · 18/10/2021 17:24

Yeah I agree a diagram is needed

GoodnightGrandma · 18/10/2021 17:26

I was also thinking that a diagram is missing.

With every new post OP the situation gets more complicated. We now need a diagram, and I’m afraid that since you have left it so long, nothing more that a fully colour coded one will do. Thankyou in anticipation.

GoodnightGrandma · 18/10/2021 18:07

Can I suggest that it is drawn to scale so that we may fully appreciate the situation.

Diagram - you know the rules!

I don’t understand why you are upset about them strimming your weeds.
I also don’t understand what that has to do with parking.
