I purchased a cottage property 19 years ago which dated from 1700. Consisting of 3 cottages joined together. These had been demolished and rebuilt from the original materials where possible and the result was one single cottage. <br> during the transition the builder had to purchase extra land to one long side to give a new access for a new drive due to the position of this with relation to the position to the main road been too near to a bad bend.<br> there are 5 separate purchases and deeds completed by different solicitor’s including the last one by myself to widen the whole drive for access and parking. All land was purchased from a Lord’s Estate and resembles a jigsaw - where the boundary to the outside meets the Estate’s farmland there is a double gate in the wall. My problem is that we are selling the property now and where the gate is showing on all deeds there is a triangle which I thought was an indication of the gate been able to open towards my property although the farmer doesn’t need the access as too tight.<br> the buyer’s solicitor seems to think that these triangles are not owned by anyone - does anyone have any experience of what this sign means and if in fact they are right/what my actions should b to correct something I’ve been using for 19 years now without anyone commenting

Alan - unsure if you mean a triangle symbol (OS information) or a triangle of (un)registered land. If the latter and unregistered land then we don't know who the legal owner is<br> Our PGs 4 & 5 and 52 deal with claims as to ownership of land and prescriptive (claimed) easements (rights) which may be of interest. But please do rely on your conveyancer for legal guidance<br> <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/land-registration-practice-guides">Land registration: Practice guides - GOV.UK</a>

Hello Peter. Just wondering if you managed to sort this as we have an almost identical situation
