Fencing in Durrington
Durrington in north west Worthing is a mix of post war estates and newer developments around the A27. Long runs of shared back garden boundaries are common, so many jobs involve agreeing a fence with one or more neighbours.
Local tip. On newer estates, check your title plan or deeds for who is responsible for each boundary before replacing a shared fence.
