Yes that is correct. We keep turf on our side and they are claiming in the letter that its attracting vermin. However two weeks ago we put sheets of wood inside our side of the fence so in effect its totally blocked off. With the letter they included a photo of the fence but it has now been removed and sitting in a bin out the front waiting to be collected on Tuesday.
Yes the fire engine was called. We were away at the time and there was some damage done to our property but we said nothing as these are the type of people that you wouldn't win with.
As it happens it was our intention to put one of our existing fences in there but I am just wondering where will it go next - complaints of not being correct colour etc. I just don't know legally what we should do. To be honest I just don't want to spend money, time or energy on this - far more important things going on. However at the same time I don't want them to think by us putting in a fence that we are accepting liability of what they are claiming.
The fences were there when the houses were built. They are fences sitting on concrete posts running the length of our backgardens.
These people do not do verbal, we have not spoken to them in years. There is a long history there but threats were made by them to us so I have not had any dealings with them in years
Thanks for your assistance
