Answer

Who owns the fence between two gardens?

No automatic rule; the title deeds and Land Registry plan decide it, sometimes via a T-mark.

In short

There is no automatic rule, despite the common myth about the left-hand boundary. Ownership is set by the title deeds and the Land Registry plan, sometimes shown with a T-mark on the owner's side. Check your deeds, and where a boundary is shared, agree the work with your neighbour first.
