The local planning office are usually very helpful with boundary lines and they will advise of any planning applications in the area.

For the actual property boundary lines the Land registry should help

Is that the official land registry site? I had to get my boundary plans to settle a dispute with a neighbour and am sure I contacted a local off ice and only paid about £5. I have just noticed on the site that it is an independent service ,the official land registry is a lot cheaper.

ring your local planning office, and they will send for a nominal fee.

Sometimes the lines aren't all that clear; if you're looking to find an inch the plans frequently aren't good enough.

In our case, the boundary line was also marked in the bushes with a line of bricks - which fair surprised my neighbour when i pointed out to them just how much of their 'front garden' wasn't theirs. However, she's a fussy woman who cuts her grass edges with scissors, so I graciously let her keep trimming it.

I had a similar issue with a 2ft wide strip of grass to the side of my house. The builders plans showed it was mine, and the actual land registry showed it wasnt!
