I remember an asphalt refinery in Rhode Island.. It had over 2000 acres.. Well no fence , no property line .. The corp auditors came in one time to part of the audit was to validate the fixed assets ledgers.. One guy question the property lines a few miles around where houses were built.. He wanted to know where the company property ended and theirs ajoined.. It was also recommended the refinery put up a fence around the property... After survey of land.. It found a number of houses built on the refinery in the back area.ggg They let it go and built fences well within the company lines. I wonder if they could have done anything these people had been living there for at least thirty years. Speaking of a bad neighbor ,, my brother in law told me of a story in Ireland where a German bought a farm which had a trout stream going through it... He decided he didn't want anyone coming on his property fishing... They all got together and paid him a visit explain the community always fishes in the trout stream... The new neighbor got the idea and no further problems... i doubt he bought into an area and would welcome no one ever associating with him.. Esp. if he needed some help!
