Firstly, without boring you with the detail, let me give you a brief background. The Party Wall Act (The Act) as we know it today was effectively born from the London Building Acts (LBA). As you will appreciate London has a large number of properties which are constructed in close proximity to one another, and neighbourly disputes were slowing down the construction process. The LBA introduced measures to make it easier for developers and home owners to carry out work along boundary lines and reduce the level of disputes by setting out specific obligations on both parties. The LBA was used successfully in London for many years until finally in 1996 it was decided to revamp the act and roll it out nationwide in the form of The Party Wall Act 1996.
