My mum is 88 and lives in a semi detached bungalow , some years ago the neighbours said they wanted to put up a fence , mum agreed and offered to share costs which they declined and while she was out they removed the hedge which was there ( mums ) and put up a fence . All good you would think but for some reason known only to themselves they put it inside their boundary and for years have been causing trouble about the 4 inches of garden they own on my mums side of the fence . The have put rubbish , wood and bricks though the fence over the years but the recent harassment has been to lift the fence panels and put them on bricks and put ornaments though .
mum can't afford to put up her own fence and I think if she did the would damage it by putting things between the 2 fences , we put large pots and a small fence to block the gap but they have now put a third fence panel up on bricks .
None of us live near and at the end of the day my mum is old and vulnerable on her own she won't contact 101 because she thinks it will make things worse and she won't move because she's lived there so long so we are at a loss how to deal with the situation .
