What is a Party Wall Bolton?
In simple terms a party wall divides the buildings of two owners with the limit in between ownerships generally, however not constantly, positioned at the centre of the wall.
Area 20 of the The Party Wall and so on. Act 1996 identifies 2 various types of party wall:
Type A
A wall that stands astride the boundary of land belonging to 2 (or more) various owners. Examples include walls separating terraced or semi-detached houses or walls that form the border in between 2 gardens, referred to as a “party fence wall” (see more detailed description listed below).
Type B
A wall that stands wholly on one owner’s land, but is used by two (or more) owners to separate their buildings. Examples consist of where one neighbour has a structure that leans against a wall that is owned by the other neighbour. Just the part of the wall that is confined by the lean-to is a Party Wall.
Party Structure
The Act also uses the expression “celebration structure”, as in “Party Structure Notice”. As the celebration walls described above this term incorporates dividing structures such as floorings or other partitions. It is rare that structures of this type are the topic of a Party Wall Agreement.
Party Fence Wall
A “party fence wall” is not part of a building. It stands astride the boundary line in between lands of different owners and is used to separate those lands. Wood fences, or even fences with concrete posts, are not celebration fence walls.
