 Unadopted Lane Query - Chas
We have an unadopted unmade lane that runs behind our house and each house is responsible for the upkeep directly behind each property. Straightforward so far....

Running down side side of next door's side boundary is the access to the lane and there is another property on the other side.

My question is are they responsible, half and half for the upkeep of the acccess to the lane. In the summer the sides get overgrown and it looks a mess. Neither neighbours actually use the lane so they probably ignore it as a problem.

Who do I talk to to get official advice? Land registry or the council to determine responsibility?

Thanks in advance for any replies
