Colyton

Colyton is a community in Devon, England. It is located within the East Devon local authority location. It is 3 miles (4.8 km) from Seaton and 6 miles (9.7 kilometres) from Axminster. Its population in 1991 was 2,783, decreasing to 2,105 at the 2011 Census. Colyton is a major part of the Coly Valley selecting ward. The ward population at the above census was 4,493. Colyton initially appeared as an old village around 700 AD and features in the Domesday Book as 'Culitone'. The 3rd code of regulation of King Edmund I was released at Colyton in about 945. This aided to maintain feudal culture, by mentioning plainly its four columns: royalty, lordship, family, and area. It became a vital farming centre and market town with a corn mill, saw mill, iron factory and an oak bark tannery that is still functioning. Positioned 0.5 miles (0.8 km) to the north of the town was Colcombe Castle, currently destroyed, a former seat of the Courtenay household, Earls of Devon. Complying with the attainder of the Marquis of Exeter the Courtenay lands escheated to the Crown, and those within Colyton were offered back for £1,000 to different locals of Colyton church, as detailed in an act transcribed in the Letters and Documents of Henry VIII dated 6 January 1547, summarised as "John Clarke as well as others. Grant in free socage, based on leas and so on (defined), for l,000 l, of the following lands (degrees offered) in the parish of Colyton, which are parcels of Colyton chateau, Devon, and also belonged to Henry Marquis of Exeter, attainted". This was the beginning of the Feoffees of Colyton, who continued to keep in usual different residential properties in the parish. The community has actually been referred to as "the most defiant community in Devon" due to the number of its inhabitants who signed up with the Monmouth Rebellion in 1685.

    FAQs

    Do I need to tell my neighbours if I’m going to replace my fence?

    It’s a good idea to talk to your neighbours before you start any work to avoid confusion along the way. But if the fence is definitely your responsibility and on your property, there’s no legal obligation to notify them. It’s also a myth that you need to erect a fence with the flush side without posts facing your neighbour’s property.

    How much does fencing cost?

    The most basic fencing starts at about £27 per panel. But if you want something that’s more decorative and better quality, expect to budget £30-£40 per panel.If you choose to get a professional to help you put up your fencing, they’ll probably be able to get your panels at a cheaper rate.

    Can I make my neighbour repair their fence?

    For a lot of home and property owners in the UK, a common courtesy is being neighbourly and several people find it relatively easy to get along with the folks next door. However, for most individuals, where the major dispute arises most times is due to boundaries which can lead to impasse that may only be resolved through legal action. But since nobody wants that, when boundary issues become more than just passing a comment about the current condition of the fence, you may want to clue yourself up on what to do to get the desired action. If attempts have been made to talk to your neighbour to no avail, there are a couple of things you can consider to make “them next door repair their fence. In this post, we’re going to give you a good insight on these things to help you make informed decisions. Let’s take a look!

    Firstly, it should be stated that if the fence poses an immediate danger then the usual legalities doesn’t apply. In this scenario, you may need to report to the local council who’ll take the necessary action on your behalf.

    • Offer assistance. Since the cost of repairing a fence isn’t the cheapest thing to do, a lot of people might not be too eager to carry out this project and any friendly suggestion to do so may not be taken kindly. So if you feel that the this may be the issue, you can try offering some assistance to lessen the financial burden on your neighbour.
    • Put up your own fence. If all attempts fail, you can consider erecting your own fence. However, this must be on your own property and as close to the boundary as possible.
    How close can I build to my neighbour’s fence?

    As a home or property owner, you’re generally allowed to build next to your neighbour’s fence as long as it’s on your own side of the property. With that in mind, there are certain laws that regulate how close a fence can be built to buildings on the same lot or neighbouring lots. In addition, there are also local bylaws that provide limitations on the placements as well as height of fences so as to address safety hazards. In this post, we’re going to give you a good insight into how close you can build to your neighbour. Let’s take a look!

     

    In general, if the fence is in your boundary then you’re allowed to build a 2-metre high brick or wooden fence or wall. However, this may differ depending on your location in the UK. As a result, you may want to reach out to your municipality’s building department in order to determine what these rules and limitations are in your area. In the events whereby there are no such restrictions but you’re still concerned, you can try informing your neighbour what your concerns are. However, if they’re not receptive there are some steps you can take to ensure your plans go as smoothly as possible. These steps include the following:

    • Ensure to leave sufficient space for both the posts and footings
    • Stagger your fence posts in order to make sure you’re not digging your neighbour’s
    • Consider using concrete posts as they’re much stronger and will last a lot longer
    • Use kickers or plinths for raised gardens and flower beds
    • Make use of concrete plinths as they won’t rot over time like a wooden fence.
