What this sheet is for
Gather what your documents say about every boundary in one place, before a fence falls down. When a repair is due, who maintains it already has a written answer.
Who it is for
Homeowners, buyers going through their deeds, and neighbours sharing the cost of a fence, wall or hedge.
How to use it
- Letter each side of the plot on the sketch, and draw the fences, walls, hedges and any T marks.
- For each side, copy what the title plan, deeds and any agreement actually say, with the document reference.
- List rights of way, easements and shared drains or drives.
- Log every repair with its cost and how it was shared with the neighbour.

Printed under the title: What the title plan, deeds and any agreement say about each boundary, who maintains each fence, wall or hedge, and every repair, gathered in one place before anyone needs it.
Record the documents, not assumptions. A title plan often shows only the general line of a boundary, and which side a fence stands on does not by itself show who owns it. Copy what your documents actually say, with their references, rather than what you assume. Rules differ by country: take advice before acting on a disagreement.

Questions
Does the side a fence is on show who owns it?
Not reliably. Which side a fence stands on, or which way its posts face, does not by itself show who owns or must maintain it. The deeds, any covenants and any agreement with the neighbour are what count, which is why the sheet asks for document references.
Can this sheet settle a boundary dispute?
No. It records what your documents say and what has been agreed. Rules on boundaries differ by country, and where you and a neighbour disagree, take advice before acting.
