A retired teacher is embroiled in a bitter row with her neighbour who she claims 'stole 1.1 metres of her garden' and ripped up her decking around her hot tub. She alleges he tore down her fence, ripped up the decking around her hot tub and erected his own fence in her garden. This nightmare has been raging on for nearly two years now, all beginning with a letter from the Land Registry in April 2024. From there, she installed the new deck surrounding the hot tub, working tirelessly from February to June last year. He sawed about a metre off my garden at a slope and taken five wooden planks from the hot tub surround.
