This neighbour has recently bought the property and Storm Bert did a horrendous amount of damage to the gallop that he uses for racehorses. I doubt he'd willingly agree to coughing up so I'll be taking things gently. Always best to try and stay stay on decent terms. 😊

Yeah that maybe, but the insurance company will no doubt try to reclaim that off the landowner in some length/expensive and convoluted legal wranglings which puts up everyone else's policies.

 

So cut out the middleman and amicably sort things beforehand and save everyone agro, increased premiums and have a reasonable relationship with a neighbouring landowner = win win for everyone.

And pigs will fly!!

It might be worth going onto the Land Registry website where you can download a copy of the title plan for £7. 🙂
