A new fence was erected by my neighbors some years ago which is positioned inside what is the actual boundary (on their side of it). This was done for convenience purposes, as following the actual line would have been more difficult for them. Since it was erected my animals have grazed on this land without it being raised as an issue. The neighbors have recently sold their entire holding, and again no question was raised about the boundary and I understand that the sale has now completed. The piece of land in question is quite small, however I do find it very useful and would like to retain it.
So, what options do I have......... wait till 12 years expires (in 2/3 years) and claim adverse possession, or does the recent transfer infer in some way that the new purchaser is accepting the revised boundary by default?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
