Hi
My wife and i looking at buying a house that has a side entrance located on a lane way that isnt showing as owned by anyone on the land direct site.
The current owners of the house have had their solicitor create a document declaring that for 25 years both they and the previous owners had no issues using the lane way even though it is not listed as a right of way or even listed as being privately owned.
I have contacted the local council roads department as the lane connects to a council road in front of the house we are looking at but that was only today so havent had a response yet.
At the other end of the lane way there is a gate to another house but they dont own the lane way and also have been using it unrestricted
My solicitor seems to be unhappy that no one seems to know who owns the lane way but my question is that is it not their job to find out and are the right to be concerned
thanks
Colin
Our solicitor wants to find who owns the lane way as the local council have come back and said that they have no claim on it.
The house we are looking at and the house at the end of the lane way back onto a centuries old convent so they may own the lane but i am hoping that our solicitor will find that out in due course.
is there anywhere we could look ourselves to try and find out the owners of the lane way?
ok will wait to see what they come back with and hope its all positive
thanks for all the comments
