Thanks all for your feedback. @bassanclan Not the main wall but sloping walls which are almost 3 feet thicker and 6 feet high and are entirely in my property. They need to be trimmed. @Temp Good point, I will check with the builder for the site insurance. @kandgmitchell Yes, the new walls would entirely be in my property so there would be two separate terraces. @TommoUK Good point, I will check with the council if it was bomb gap. That's exactly the PW surveyor is doing at the moment.

Thanks all. To clarify the situation, on both side of my empty plot of land are string of terraced houses. The neighbour on one side does not have any problem and let the architect inspect the inside of property and an award is made. While the neighbour on the other side is ignoring all the notices. My previous planning permission was expired waiting for his response and I have to apply for a new permission. After getting the permission my architect is trying to contact him for about 3 months. Tired of this wait my architect appointed an architect on neighbour's behalf. Agin the appointed architect has been trying to contact the neighbour for over 3 months but of no use. At this stage the architect we appointed on his behalf is willing to award after external inspection of the neighbours property. Any ideas that what legal step I can take to protect myself from a potential litigation in this matter? @LSB thanks. I'll check with the architect if he/his company is insured. To your send point, we have to trim his irregular wall to make it even but we will build our own wall next to his. @kandgmitchell and @ProDave explained above, thanks.

Hi, Sorry I am new to the forum and would like to ask if anyone has the experience of a non-responding neighbour to a PWA notices. I have and empty plot of land and want to build a terraced house. My surveyor appointed a surveyor on behalf of one of the neighbour. However one of the neighbour is not responding to any of the notices over the last six months. At this point the appointed surveyor on his behalf is willing to serve the award on the basis of external property conditions as he cannot gain the entry to the neighbour's property. However I am concerned about the potential legal consequences if the neighbour decide to sue me at a later stage. Does someone ever experience this kind of situation?
