I am in the process of doing up a Victorian terrace and one of the tasks
is to repoint at the back of the house.
The layout is the classic Victorian l-shape :-
_______ _______ _______
| | x| |y z| |
| | x| |y z| |
| | x| |y z| |
| | x| |y z| |
| |______x| |y____z| |_______

| | My | |
| | House | |

|_______________|______________|_______________ |
Do I 'own' x & y or y & z?
Normally x & y unless there is something in the Land Registry
information to the contrary
If it is x & y then presumably I need permission from the owner next
door to repoint wall 'z'.
No, normally he is responsible for z but would come to you to ask for
access to it for repair. Likewise you would ask the other neighbour
for access to repair x.
