Coburns accepts boundary instructions in Rugby and Daventry. 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.

Shared access: identify the land and the right separately

A Rugby or Daventry instruction concerning a shared side route needs a clear distinction between who owns the strip and who may use it. A fence line, wheel track or widened driveway may show how the route has been used without identifying the extent of the legal title or the wording of an access right. Establish the question before commissioning measurements.

Useful evidence for this type of instruction

  • Supply all deed wording and plans concerning access.
  • Show gates, pinch points and changes in surface or width.
  • Explain whether the disagreement concerns ownership, permitted use or obstruction.

Local records to consider

Rugby Borough Council and West Northamptonshire Council provide separate planning-record routes. Select the authority for the property and search for the original access arrangement as well as later garage or driveway work.

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.

Choose the right boundary service

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.

Is a boundary report also a ruling on access rights?

Only the agreed scope is addressed. A disputed easement or remedy may need a solicitor’s advice alongside the boundary evidence.

Important: General information, not legal advice. Boundary disputes are fact-sensitive. A private expert determination binds the parties under their agreement; a report alone does not automatically bind a neighbour or alter the Land Registry register. Obtain appropriate legal advice where litigation, binding terms or changes to title are involved.
