We have a right of way to a field we own and a neighbouring property is dumping water from their pond onto our right of way, saturating the ground which may inhibit our ability to provide water, vehicle access. Does anyone have any advice for this situation? The situation has already been brought to their attention but they continue to do this.

Legal issues possibly?
What's the story over the years?
They sold land and miffed since or wanted to buy themselves and missed out?
Nutters about.

They wanted the land and complained to the council when we brought and they found out. We got planning to convert from agricultural to equestrian.

Solicitors letters to the them plus incriminating photos tell them straight.
Thanks. I am wondering if its the landowners problem that needs to provide the right of way?

Do you mean footpath or drive track?
All easements and covenants should be on your deeds, what do they say?
It's a drive track up to our field. I suppose I would need to check the detail in the right of way.

You'd need to check, but I think you might be able to get a court order to stop them doing it while the legalities are sorted out. But your solicitor would know. Better a heavy hand now than a long dragged out issue.
Thank you, I will check that out.

Are you sure it's not dirty water as it's an offence... Sepa or epa depending on where you are....
I guess he is treating the pond to keep algae at bay and for the welfare of his fish - am not sure if that would constitute dirty water.
