A person who was walking past the house on the way to a business premises next door has fallen over this lump of tar and is making a claim against the local council who have passed the claim on to the house owner stating that it is nothing to do with the council.
To answer the questions, council have written to house owner telling them of incident and saying they are liable, complaint was made to the council.
No correspondence has been received from the 'injured party'
Thank you Vanilla for the advice, they don't know who the person involved is. But what happens if for example the land was belong to them but clearly the lump of tar was not theirs, can they then pursue the council themselves for any cost incurred due to the council's negligence in leaving this lump? Not fair that their insurance, if any, should increase due to no fault of theirs.
To be honest I cannot be 100% sure whether or not there is insurance in place.
So the guy that got "injured" as well as everyone else who uses this space are trespassing
