Hedgerow dispute puts neighbour in ‘last place on Earth he wants to be’

One of the neighbours involved in a court battle over a hedge and laneway yesterday told the High Court the Four Courts was the last place on Earth he wanted to be.

He was replying to counsel for his next-door neighbours when asked was it his position that it was too late for common sense to prevail in their boundary dispute.

Mr Madigan was giving evidence in the second day of the action between neighbours in a scenic area by the sea in Co Wicklow.
