Are you an electrician?

Looped (shared) supplies are not uncommon although your cutout is not one that I recognise.

From the photo it is impossible to tell whether the feed to next door is taken from the supply side of the fuse and then fused next door or if it is taken from the load side. Whichever, for any changes you would need to consult your electrician who will probably refer this to the dno

Its a submain to your neighbour, perfectly normal. There is only one fuse which feeds both houses.
