I'm intrigued by what it says about the Land Registry not being definitive. That's interesting. I have to say that my memory is that if the LR plan shows a particualr line, then convincing anyone that that's wrong and needs amending is a real uphill battle, so that site may be right in theory but in practice you'd be 0-40 down.

Anyway, the main point to take is the fence. Tell him that the fence was erected at the time, by the seller and the purchaser at the time of the division of the land, and it obviously represents the correct boundary. So as long as your greenhouse is on your side of the fence, he can do one.

(It could get messy if the foundations of the slab your greenhouse sits on have nudged across underneath the fence line beneath the soil ... in which case you're occupying his land ... that would probably bring you back to adverse possession though how that would work with something udner the ground and thus concealed I don't know. Buy that book!)
