Boundaries
The boundary of a property determines over which land the rights and liabilities of the property owner or occupier will operate.

Note the following characteristics of a boundary:
  • A boundary is a line that divides two pieces of land.
  • A boundary may be physical, in that it is marked by a physical feature, which may be natural, (such as a river) or artificial (such as a fence).
  • A boundary may be legal, in that it is identified in the legal documents of title. However this will rarely be precise and it will not necessarily be apparent on the ground.
  • The physical boundary may not follow exactly the same line as the legal boundary.
  • Boundaries may be fixed by agreement between the owners of the two  pieces of land, by statute or by legal presumption.
  • Boundaries may be horizontal or vertical.
