    I have tenants in a property. There is a sea view from the back ie kitchen, living area and back lawn and patio. The property backs on another property (it's front is facing the sea). Both properties are 'end' properties, hence my lovely view.

    However this evening, when the tenants arrived home, a work man was erecting a separate fence on the neighbours side but it's at least 1 foot higher.
    This seriously impacts on the view and the already depleted:rolleyes: value of the property.
    Any advise here would be appreciated.

    I think fences to the rear of a property can be 1.8m high before planning is required

    Capped walls made of brick, stone or block, wooden fences but not security fences can be erected as long as they do not exceed 1.2 metres in height or two metres at the side or rear. Gates may be build provided they do not exceed 2 metres in height.

    From here.
