How to solve the boundary dispute with a stressfully difficult neighbor?

[Pixy_E]

I can't reconcile the Google maps image and the lease plan.

Also you've talked about land that is your neighbours, and land that is yours, and you've mentioned "sharing land" - do you mean communal land over which you and your neighbour both have rights to use? Can you identify those three areas on the Google maps image and the lease plan?

Have you got the leases? Any chance you could post these?

As others have said, don't sign anything without legal advice. If someone wants you to enter into a deed of variation they should pay your legal fees.

If the neighbour is breaching the terms of their lease (eg by accessing property that isn't demised to them or over which they have rights of access, or, similarly, by denying access to another leaseholder to land they are entitled to access) they are likely to be in breach of the terms of their lease, and you should notify the landlord and press for them to take action.

It's hard to offer much help because it's still unclear what's actually going on.

Good luck.

Thank you for the comment.
we do have leases and showed them to a couple of solicitors, who all said the demising of the communal land is very blur. The most difficult thing for us is, the actual boundary has been altered into current shape for over 20 years, way before we moved in, but the free holder claimed that he had no idea about the alteration.
We have charter surveyor report which says clearly that the neighbor is breaching the lease and a suggesting remedy, but he ignored it, interestingly, so as his solicitor now. They just don’t reply on our evidence, neither have they provide any evidence/document to support their position. It feels like wasting my legal fee over talking nonsense.

I reckon it's this:

Spoiler: clicky

L shaped garden behind a semi detached that's shared in a funny way.

Lease plan: pink is my private; white is neighbor’s private; green is same right of access with my duty of maintenance; brown is same right of access with neighbour’s duty of maintenance.
Google plan/ actual boundary since ages ago: red L shape is neighbour’s fence and shed, all locked up; blue is my shed and land, out side his fence; yellow is under dispute that neighbour’s is claiming it’s his.

Christ almighty did you not actually *look* at the deed when you were buying the place?

Can I blame the conveyancer… ? Yeah, we are paying for the neglect.

It sounds totally on the neighbour to get over being wrong if they want to sell the house.

You might humour them for whatever reason and sign away the land you're meant to be sharing but won't the freeholder have something to say about an alteration like that?

The free holder kept saying that he never know about the alteration. Even kinda blame us using legal action. ( we have been using a Solisitor as the Police recommended us, the neighbour’s has done a few things to harass us by taking advantage of the sharing land, the police said they couldn’t do anything without a court call. )
