I have been renting a lock up garage since September 2020 and it isn't local to me so have not visited it that often I have been paying my rent regularly with no issues
This week I went to the lock up garage and the locks had been changed however I managed to gain access and to my horror it was completely empty
I spoke to a neighbour who lives opposite the garage and they told me that in October approximately 6 months ago there was a notice on the front of the garage saying the rightful owners require this property back please remove the goods inside or will be disposed of
Unfortunately this notice was no longer present inside or outside of the garage
I immediately contacted the landlord and his first reaction was for me to call the police and to not make any more payments to him in relation to the garage I make monthly payments of £120
I have since contacted the police but there is nothing they can do without any further information
The garage was completely full and would have required several trips and heavy lifting to have cleared it out completely
The landlord has not said anything more
What should be my next course of action should there be a record of the served notice somewhere so I can see who has done this
It seems strange to me that it's been served notice and they carried it out to the letter without any notification to me is this an illegal eviction
Can somebody please help me
