Garden fence height?

[Fox]

In the back garden there is a 4ft perimeter fence with 20+ft high conifers and down one side running the length of the garden and house, so you can walk to font garden down the side of house, is a 4ft fence with 6-8ft bushes.
So obviously cos i own the house the council wont trim it back when they do other trimming jobs , and the public footpath runs round my house.
So I want to remove the conifers and bushes, that overgrow and all different heights, and the fence and put up a taller/tallest flat panelled fence for privacy and less maintenance plus greater garden space for my dogs. Also as mine is the end terrace its the first thing you see big conifers and bushes,and i've noticed kids smokin in the shelter of them and hanging round them so gotta do something.

Not really enough information Fox. Usually you can put up a 2 metre fence if you are far enough from the road but there are different planning regulations for fences which are close to or abut paths and roads. A lot depends on the local authority so your best bet is to ask their planning department what their take on it is.

If noone has come knocking on your door about your umpteen foot high hedge it's a good pointer that you can have your 2m fence but best to make sure first. Around where I live it's quite common for the council to ignore unkempt hedges but enforce the rules on fences and walls.

it was advice as the planning dept will give you a clear and succint answer, which is more than you can say for your rambling opener. I would have given you the answer but after the reply to wabbit poo, you can work it out yourself. Funnily enough many people who give advice on here do so in their time to help others out, so perhaps you might want to think about that before you get too sarcastic

 

[Fox]

thanks for that robert.

i thought i'd ask here, see if anyone done the same or similar and what they did,

and that is what you got.

my statement still stands, there is no question mark in your text.

Yes your title does have a question mark but since it only says

Garden fence height?

it does not give any information,
is it your garden fence height? your neigbours fence height?

you then decided to tell us all when after being asked you wrote

garden fence height?
how high can i go? der?

You have to bear in mind, we are not you, we do not know what you are thinking, so we can only go by what you type, which takes me back to where i started, your text has no question mark.

have a nice day, and bear it in mind for any future questions

omg??????????????????????it was a starting point to carry on the thread, your the one that started picking holes, dont think i'll bother, thanks for 'pullin it down before it was built!'

 

[breezer]

dont think i'll bother,

now you are being silly. my posts are just critisism. To not bother would be a waste of time and probably a lie from you anyway.

This thread reminds me of why I have pretty much abandoned this site - its full of people who want a quick answer without a) any of their own research, b) bothering to read what they have typed or c) expect contributors to read their minds and take it personally when one askes for clarification.

One shouldn't be surprised there as many nut jobs and to$$ers as in the "real" world, I suppose!
