Curved trellis?

Hiya. The neighbours’ lovely extension means they’re at waist height on their side, at a wall which is 6ft high on our side (terraced houses on a slope). So they’re looming over quite unintentionally. I’d like to stick a trellis on top of the wall for privacy but it probably needs to be cut to measure to follow the curve of the wall. Can anyone recommend a stockist? Not fancying the cost of made to measure trellis even if it exists 🫣

Is that raised decking/terrace though to fit up to their new extension? Were they not that high before?

There are rules about raised decking (or other platforms), you might want to check your local planning requirements, because they may have to make it lower, rather than you buy MTM trellis.

Not necessarily.
What about something straight, starting at the height of the door. It could have the added benefit of hiding the pipe.
If it is densely planted then you probably wouldn't even notice the shape of the wall behind.

Their plans should have include measures to maintain privacy - you can view the plans online. It might be a condition written in the officer’s report. It’s their job to sort it really.

I’d put up normal square trellis and put something thick and reliably evergreen on it. Evergreen hydrangea petiolaris (sp?), evergreen jasmine or clematis armadii. That’ll hide the pipe too.
