Hi

My neighbor recently put in a planning application to build a brand new house in the garden at the side of his house. I live in a house next to this side garden.

I know from the registry of deed documents for my house that the plot of land where my house and the neighbors house are located have restrictions that specify we can't build any new dwellings within the gardens we own.

These registry of deed documents were written up between 1904 and 1920 when the houses were originally built.

I suspect my neighbor doesn't realize these restrictions exist in his registry of deed documents.

|'m wondering what will happen if my neighbor gets the planning permission to build the new house and then goes ahead and builds it ?

Will he run into problems only when he wants to sell the house?

If so how could he address these restrictions in his registry of deed documents?

Would he have to go through some legal process to get his deeds updated so he can build or retain a new house in his garden?
