Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Connecticut

Bought house in 8/86. Put in irrigation with neighbor telling me how far I could go with sprinklers. Have mowed, weeded, seeded and done all tree work in that area since '86. Original owner left, 2nd owner was fine with relationship. Now new owner gets survey and says my sprinklers are on his property. Line appears to be 1/4 into my open backyard. Do I have any recourse?
