Hey all - just wondering if anyone has any wise pearls of wisdom here:
As usual, my ideas fall in a grey space in the available PD and planning advice!
I'm considering replacing a ~2m high hedge with a ~2m high fence (i.e. same height), but the trouble is that the 2m measurement is on my side. My neighbours ground level is about 1m below my ground level - meaning the current hedge, and my proposed fence, would be ~3m on their side.
I'm thinking some sort of retaining wall with a fence on top, or concrete posts, with concrete panels to cover the height difference, topped with wooden panels.
Obviously we're going to call round to explain what I'm planning - at some point... We share rear boundary but are quite a way apart as its the next street along and we're both corner plots, and I fear they don't like young (<60YO) people, as they have always spoke to the parents and inlaws, but never us...) Might send MIL round actually!
Anyway, here is an idea of my proposal - the squares represent about a meter.
