To stop next door looking in garden?

[purpleme12]

There is a fence which is next door's between our garden and theirs
Which isn't very high
Is there anything I can put in our garden next to their fence or something that can go high so they can't see in and we can't see them?
It's not my area of expertise

Put your own fence in front of their one.

There are quite a few fast growing native species that you can grow as a hedge, and will be very cheap if you buy then bare root in winter.

Get some garden obelisks and grow some evergreen climbers up them.

Bamboo screening like this

Luckily our neighbours don't want to look at us anymore than we want to look at them, and thankfully they erected a very high fence. If they hadn't we would have done so on our side they are complete and utter pricks

The bamboo screening would have to attached to the fence wouldn't it?
I don't trust them at all.

I'm also just thinking that on the property information form it said this fence was my responsibility. However I know from previous conversation that this neighbour put this fence up.
But if anything happens with this fence in the future ie it breaks etc etc he could easily turn round and say he's not fixing it and I wouldn't have a come back and it's officially my responsibility
So I'm just thinking I'd need to be able to access this fence for the future in case I need to wouldn't I?

You can put the extensions on legs so it's on your side. Like this:

The boundary may be yours but the fence not, if positioned on ndn land.

Oh this is interesting I've not seen that before

You don’t have to fence a boundary if you don’t want to. So if ‘his’ fence got damaged or fell down you could just leave it as it is if you wanted.

Oh god I'm not sure if I'd be able to prove it's on their land. I mean for example exactly at what point our garden ends and theirs starts.

Pleached trees

What about planting espalier shaped trees along there? An evergreen variety?

Are you sure that they haven't put that fence there to claim a bit of extra land? I would look at the deeds again to determine where the boundary is

I've looked again and I don't think the fence is taking up any more of our land.
I know it's his fence because he told me he put it up in previous conversations before he turned really nasty

I would actually replace the entire fence and give him back his panels undamaged. I couldn't put up with that at all. Especially considering he has turned nasty.
