Yep sounds the same.

Our Title deeds quote for all times purposes over and along , theirs over-along and upon.

slight issue in track and verge shaded the same colour thou.

didn’t think we had any chance of stopping them but since have found a president in a similar case , our verge was dropped to allow access ,president case was the same circumstance , we never gave any permission to do so , we will be sending a letter to them to express our right to reinstate the verge to its forma state , hedged and fenced.

the old owner lives down the same drive and was a property man , he was the one who created the access issue , so had filled the new owners head with all kinds of lies regarding what we can do and their rights to use the track , he also when selling said house got them new vendor to use the same firm of solicitor which given the new vendor is a estate agent is mind boggling.

plenty more if required!!

What's the name of the previous precedent case. Is that case public knowledge or just over your roadway?

Get a solicitor and get them to pay the fees. You can agree the map first but it will have to go through the Land Registry. Otherwise when you lose your plan which said X the new neighbour claims it said Y and then the fun starts.

As there is a ransom strip in place, someone went to the trouble of paying to set it up in the 1st place, most likely the land the neighbours house sits on used to be part of your field. Any restriction on the use of a property/site alters the value and it is usual for this to be reflected in the price paid when purchasing.

If the terms change of course there should be a payment and it needs recording officially

In regard to the need to employ a solicitor, of course you do, any alteration to the title of the property needs to be officially recorded with the land registry

If you have a written licence, they will never be able to claim a right of way, so if you really don't want to have a valuer, why not kick the can down the road and just give them a licence to use the access for a bit and maybe as cars become electric the access for charging will really increase in value, I think that is what I would do. Just get your solicitor to write the licence to be on the safe side.

It's your ransom strip because you decide who can use it.

You give someone else a Right to use it and they can pass it on to whoever they sell to.

So it's no longer your Ransom strip.

Know someone who thought they were very smart with one and they granted access to a small cottage off a lane over a strip. They also held the rest of the strip to try and get a chunk of money for access to a development.

In the end the developer bought the cottage a few meters of land off someone who was more than happy to have a few quid the other side of the cottage, bulldozed the cottage and joined up through the original granted access. Nothing they could do, had a good laugh about it as they got all they deserved 🤣

So as u say be very careful
