What evidence helps if a dispute is raised about boundaries or shared drives?

Evidence reduces heat in a transaction

Buyers fear expensive neighbour disputes. Sellers reduce friction by assembling neutral facts early.

Useful documents

Official copies: title plan and register extracts showing easements and tinted areas.

Historical conveyancing replies: if previous forms TA6 or older forms mentioned shared maintenance.

Maintenance invoices: for gates, resurfacing, drains, or lighting.

Photographs: dated images of boundaries and access points.

Written neighbour arrangements: if informal but long running.

Your conveyancer can advise what can be disclosed pre-contract.
