I am in discussion with a neighbour regarding accessing my property via a "road" through their property.
I have previously gone through the process of registering easement rights to use a private road across another neighbours property via the "Transferring Granting Easement (01TG)" form.
The neighbour initially just wanted this to be a handshake agreement, however I indicated that the access has to be legal and permanent, such that if either of us sold our properties, the right to access could not be terminated (as a hand shake agreement could).
The neighbour has agreed with this approach, but is expressing reluctance at registering right of easement via the 01TG form. The neighbour has indicated a preference for another method to register the right of access, without specifying (or knowing) what that alternative may be.
I was wondering if there are other methods of establishing permanent and legal right of access that cannot be extinguished, and what the pros & cons of each may be.
Thanks
