Hello new here and after some advice
brought a semi detached house end of 2018 have been doing the hole house and gardens up.At the side of house is a very old curved block wall about 5foot tall 5m long laid on a concrete slab the size is about 6m x 5m from side of house to block wall and spans the length of house, the block wall curves off the front fence line and come back to the back garden fence by about 2 foot the other side of the block wall is high stingers on council land(a old brick factory now a nature park) my neighbours said this wall has been up 25-30 years
now I’ve just finished putting a car port on side off house. and it’s sitting on this wall,because I’ve been working round the back of wall and had to push all stingers down it’s made the wall visible last week I had letter from council saying to remove what I’ve built as on council land after phoning and talking to the council man he said he had a report from the park team that I’ve built this wall I’ve explained that wall has been up 25-30years and was there when we bought the house and if need be can get statement from neighbours confirming so also have the estate agents paper of the house when we bought it and wall is clearly seen. The block wall is made from very old blocks that they do not make these days and also the brick ties.
Now he said his going to investigate and get back to us.
so trying to find out were we stand as want to keep the wall and car port in place any feed back will be much appreciated. thanks
