    Its a tricky one. They have a responsibility for maintaining a fence. But you have a responsibility to keep your animals off their property - if they stray on to their property then they can claim for damages from you. You should try to compromise to maintain this fence between both parties which will be of mutual benefit to buth parties. ie. Talk to them and see if they are willing do it or contribute to the cost of you doing it.
