It is unfenced (purchased that way) and the neighbours are using only that narrow strip as a garden, which is above my floor level and causing moisture issues in my home. It is for unforseen reasons like this that it's beneficial to fence your boundary. 2 7540 Joe Apologies for the delay in getting back to you.
