Coburns accepts boundary instructions in Banbury. Start with the two property addresses, the disputed section and the evidence you already hold. Site attendance is arranged by agreement, subject to the instruction and access.
Deal with boundary uncertainty before a sale
For a Banbury owner preparing to sell, a vague disagreement about a fence can become a practical transaction problem if it is left unexplained. Identify what is disputed, preserve the correspondence and establish whether the existing evidence supports an agreed position. A focused early review may help determine whether a full investigation or a documented agreement is proportionate.
Useful evidence for this type of instruction
- Prepare a dated account of the disagreement and any earlier settlement.
- Supply the title documents and the buyer’s or solicitor’s specific question.
- Record the current feature before repair or replacement changes it.
Local records to consider
Cherwell District Council’s planning register provides the local record route for Banbury. Historical alteration plans may help explain a disputed layout, but your conveyancer should advise on disclosure and sale documentation.
Council planning drawings can help explain past layouts. They do not determine the legal boundary or replace title evidence. The correct council depends on the actual property address, and older documents may need to be requested.

Early Neutral Evaluation
A preliminary assessment of the key evidence and a proportionate next step: £400 + VAT desktop only, or £750 + VAT with a site visit.
Boundary Investigation Report
A fuller evidence review and reasoned opinion, from £950 + VAT, typically £950–£1,200 + VAT depending on title complexity.
Private joint expert: binding determination
Both parties appoint one independent expert and agree in writing to accept the determination. £1,800–£2,400 + VAT total, approximately £900–£1,200 + VAT each on an equal split. Scope and fees are confirmed before instruction.
Will a report automatically remove a buyer’s concern?
It may clarify the evidence, but a report alone does not bind the neighbour. An agreement or other legal step may be needed, depending on the issue.
