Hi guys
Just a little background, I have a developer about to start building a house next door, so I installed two cameras on one of my trees which sits right on the boundary line but the tree belongs to me..I installed the cameras to make sure the developer doesn't damage my fence, hedge or trees or tree roots and also for security.
But yesterday the developer freaked out saying that's its illegal for me to film into his land and climbed up the tree and pulled down my cameras.
I said i don's care what he's doing in his land and my detection area is purely set up monitoring the border such as my fence and trees as well is protecting my property from thieves as the land he's developing is really open so anyone can walk into his land and then climb over the fence into my back garden..
He said I'm breaking the law and will phone the police if I put them back but bizarrely he thinks it's ok to climb up my tree and tamper with my cameras...
Just wondered if anyone knows where I stand legally and if I can put them back and if I need to be careful at the angle they are pointing ? or could I just point them right into his land since it has no house the moment and is just a big hole in the ground
