Well this is completely wrong. Your neighbour is trespassing onto
your property.

Boundary fences (or structures) do not cross the boundary. The
entire width of your fence or wall occupies your own space.

If they are slotted concrete posts, then the outside face
marks the boundary.

If it is a wall with coping stones that project, the wall
must be set back onto your property so that the coping
stones do not cross the boundary.

This is established boundary law.

While the above is the common position, AFAIK a fence may straddle the
boundary and be owned jointly by the 2 neighbours. The deeds/LR may
then show "T" marks on both sides so it looks like an "H". Or may not.
"T" marks don't necessarily indicate ownership. Indeed, as the LR
state in their Practice Guide 40:

"'T' marks on deed plans which are not referred to in the text of a deed
have no special force or meaning in law and unless an applicant
specifically requests that the €˜T marks be shown on the title plan, we
will normally ignore them."
