Who has right of way at the back of my terraced property?
Who has right of way at the back of my terraced property? Is it the adjacent property owner or anyone who wishes to visit the adjoining property owners i.e. family and friends? Do I have rights of privacy by prohibiting access to anyone except for property owners? The terrace is a block of six houses and I live next to the end.
Presumably there is footpath which runs across the back of the houses in the terrace. If this is the case then in all probability all the houses in the terrace have a right of way over the footpath and it can be used by the various owners as well as their friends and visitors. However, without looking at your Title Deeds it is impossible to give a definite answer.
