yes, thats exactly the law at the moment, all disputes must be disclosed at time of sale with reasons

What if my car gets blocked in on my drive by a neighbour and he says he'll move it in 10 minutes and I shout at him to move it now. Would I have to tell a buyer, that?

I am in the process of moving and "Have their been any past disputes or are there any continuing disputes with the neighbours, why and what was the outcome?" or similar is now a standard question. I think a few years ago the law on this was changed to try and prevent some neighbour disputes.
As regards the garden issue I don;t understand. Our solicitor sent us the plan of the garden and told us to check it was accurate, and they have in fact done that twice.
Are you sure your solicitor hasn't asked you to check the boundaries? If they have you have no leg to stand on, if they haven't then take it further.

Mad dr.
pedantic, you
never.
the facts are that there is now a requirement to disclose neighbourly disputes with reasoning.
I believe that the reasoning declaration would be an ideal opportunity to explain that the guy next door wouldnt move his car now, rather than 10 minutes later.

12 Years is the required time to be able to claim ownership. If they have admitted it was supposedly donated to them ten years ago then they have shot themselves in the foot. Don't mention the 12 year bit to them yet in case they change their story.
I think that the latest version of the deeds is the real proof of ownership, if their claim was not notified to the Land Registry then they have no leg to stand on. Do they have documentary proof of the donation of the land?
