In the UK there is no specific law or rule governing which boundary fence one is responsible for maintaining, unless it is specifically marked with a "T" on the land registry plans. The next course is which neighbour has been maintaining which fence which is a resolution but not a legality, although the duration over which this line has been established can be a strong determining factor in boundary disputes.
It seems that, without a definite diktat within the deeds, both neighbours are equally responsible for the boundary. It is in both parties interests therefore to maintain cordial relations as to how this is achieved, equally it is important to maintain a distinct delineation in accordance with the deed plans as the latter are not typically detailed enough and it is the physical presence of a recognised line, and its period of recorded existence that will be a deciding factor in any dispute.

The centre of the fence posts are in line with the boundary. So the fence attached to the post may be on either side of the boundary line, depending on who owned the fence (especially important if dividing two gardens of semi-detached houses, where one owner may be responsible for the upkeep of the dividing fence - often shown in the deeds).
What part of the fence is mine?
The part of the fence that is yours typically extends from the boundary marker or property line to your side of the fence.

You might also want to check local property records or agreements with neighbors to clarify ownership. If in doubt, discussing it with your neighbor can help resolve any uncertainties.

What if you dont want a fence on a common boundary?
Then put it on your side of the boundary ( be sure by locating property lines exactly) then make sure you're conforming to your local building code as to height and other restrictions. That way if your neighbor doesn't like it he can't force you to take it down. ===A Different Perspective=== If you DON'T want a fence on your common boundary it sounds like your neighbor DOES want one. As long as your neighbor follows the local ordinances that control fences there is nothing you can do if they want to erect a fence providing the fence conforms to local regulations.
