So pretty sure other ph would have been in this frustrating situation or something similar, in a nutshell came home sunday evening to find a large aviary/cage for their cats right against our boundary, two and a half feet higher than our regular fence panel, and approx 12 foot long, no discussion, etc etc, although always got on with neighbour, of course its been done the biggest and highest they can have all within regulations, so we are stuck looking at it from every aspect of our garden, its literally as we come out of the back door.

Some how need to hide/screen the wire mesh/wooden frames, from the top of our fence, regular trellis wont work as we will still see the cage behind, any ideas, apart from of course the usual frozen sausages in the lawn!!

much appreciated

its our fence, standard 6ft panel, that now has just over 2 1/2 feet of aviary panels sticking above it, with a lovely (not) blue corrugated plastic roof. looking to move some of our plants around to try and cover some of the bits, but also will be making up something initially to block out what we now get to view out of our kitchen door, sun bed, and deck area. Ironically it cant be used yet, there is no door on it yet, no cat flap so the housecats can come into the enclosure and its wet and cold, so think its going to be a bit of a shock for the rescue cats.

it was just the attitude of its up, its legal, tough, thanks for all the ideas though, pity its not a lovely summerhouse for them, least that would have looked better!!

blue roof runs into shared guttering, so next big downpour will check no issue for us, thanks

due to not being more than 2.5metres, can be as near to the boundary as they like, and the total square metre is less than 15 metres so same rule applies, so its definitely all been thought through, shame we was out when they started constructing it, although maybe just as well, since our reaction to it, would have deffo kicke off, its a family member that doesnt live there who put it up, even the neighbour who lives there said it was bigger than they thought it would be, brilliant!!!

will keep looking at best option to hide the flippin thing
