A woman is considering legal action after workers on a neighbouring building site put up an 8ft-high metal fence through the middle of her garden. Gillian Arnold said the workers "were not going to stop" as they installed the fence this week.
Lawyers for developer Camstead Homes say the land, off Abbey Road in Shepley, is part of the site where they are building a housing estate. But Mrs Arnold says she has maintained the land as an allotment for almost 20 years, reports YorkshireLive.
She said: "We have been in dispute [about the land] since last year. They say it's theirs. But it's not in their plans and they don't show it being used. They warned me they were going to [put the fence up]. I said they couldn't because we were in dispute [about the ownership] but they have decided that the land is theirs.
