The message
from "Mich" contains these words:


It just so happens that there are two boulders either side of this
plant,
and it had crossed my mind to add a third immovable large one.

It won't be immovable to anyone with a large tractor; he'll just push
it out of his way and then you could find you're the one who can't get
past an immovable rock.

Don't be fool enough to start a war of attrition against a farmer
neighbour, because he holds all the best weapons and won't lose. I'm
surprised that you could have lived in the country so long and not
realise that.

Are you sure it's reasonable to decorate your boundary to a narrow
lane/corner leading to farmland? Isn't it inevitable that large and
unwieldy farm machines will have to get past somehow?

That would be the farmer's problem. His need to get to his lands does not
entitle him to ruin anybody's ground. If he finds it impossible to get to
his land, it is up to him to arrange for a proper access road, possibly by
buying the crucial piece of land.

The other side of the coin is that if the farmer has been doing this
unopposed for n years, where n is some large number, he surely has by now
acquired a right of way.
