My neighbour has recently discovered a fence within the thick hedge between our properties and now says that the Boundary is here and not where I have put my fence. Is he right?

Determining the exact boundary between two properties can be a complex and sometimes contentious issue. If your neighbour has discovered an old fence within a thick hedge and claims that this is the true boundary between your properties, it may be necessary to consult with a professional surveyor to determine the exact location of the boundary.
A professional surveyor can use a variety of methods, including historical records, physical measurements, and other evidence, to determine the precise location of the boundary between the two properties. This can help to resolve any disputes or disagreements between neighbours and ensure that both parties have a clear understanding of their respective property boundaries.
It is important to note that the discovery of an old fence within a thick hedge does not necessarily mean that this is the true boundary between the properties. Other factors, such as changes in the landscape or the movement of the fence over time, may have affected the location of the boundary. Therefore, it is always advisable to consult with a professional surveyor to determine the exact location of the boundary before making any changes or alterations to the property.
