Hi guys
Has anyone got any advice regarding domestic right of use.
My daughter has just purchased a property and the next door neighbour has their 3 bins permanently in her garden, plus a storage box and unbelievably today put her washing on a drying rack in said daughters garden !!!
Now the neighbour has access through my daughters property via a shared ginnel, but bins & washing ffs
Please any advice greatly received as she's stressed to fuck...last option will be torching her bins !! ;)
 
an incinerator bin wafting plumes of smoke down the ginnel might encourage the bastard to use her own garden

No.

Your daughter's solicitor should have pointed out what rights the neighbours have when she bought the property, and I suspect they did.

I doubt there was any specific mention of taking bins through the ginnell but if there is a general right of way through the ginnell - and there probably is - it won't need to. The neighbour is fine to take her bins with her when she goes through the ginnell.

There is no right, unless the title deeds say so, for the neighbour to leave her stuff on your daughter's property, including bins, storage boxes, washing, bikes, or whatever. Your daughter would be within her rights to put all the neighbour's stuff in the neighbour's garden.

Then again, she has to live next door to her. There's a balance between sitting on your hands while someone takes the piss, and starting a war with your neighbour that you end up wishing you'd never bothered with.

Good for them, but that would have been a curtesy. Best getting it nipped as quickly early on otherwise it can start to get awkward the longer it goes on.

One of my pals had a similar situation, moved in, neighbour was used to spreading over his garden. He had a polite word, she was so apologetic that she now a lot of the time takes out and brings in his own bins when she's taking hers out, as a nice to do. They get on well, and he was worried about upsetting her when he had to talk to her about it

Thank you, so under the right of use for domestic purposes only, can she house her bins on my daughters property permanently ?
