From Conservatory (Looking down garden)


From Conservatory (Looking at side of garden)


From Kitchen window


Not keen on the way if we are in kitchen we see over the bottom fence and straight into house opposites evening barbers shop.

Also if we are in conservatory it looks right over the fence and into next door.

Is there a height limit on fencing, as with the garden on a slight slope it will be higher in the bottom corner than up at the house.

Also want to get rid of the raised section at the bottom corner and do something else with the flower beds, as it all looks very bare at the moment.

All ideas / suggestions / info appreciated.

how tall are those fences atm? my dads are 6ft6'' and are fine, although has no one overlooking him.

if you can't get fences tall enough, i would advise planting some bushes/trees or a hedge like you already have as they give great privacy and also look lovely in summer.

They are 5ft 3in at shallowest point of the garden! Just measured the wall behind the hedge and that's 2m tall so should be able to make them all 2m make it nice and private!

Big trees or bushes or depending on who owns the fence, attach trellis to the top and train some plants up it

I think there is a limit on fences, i dont think you can go over 7ft?

I would fence it in step ups to the top corner then you wont not that the garden is not level.
