The next door neighbours have erected fences on both our side and the other next door, ie both sides of their yard, the fences have been placed on top of an existing 4ft wall making the overall height about7ft from ground level. They have not asked either side if we in fact mind them doing this, the frame of the fence is on our side of the yard with nails sticking through the wood and exposed on our side, its a totally solid fence in raw wood, looking shoddy and taking light from our yard. Is this legal and how could I approach the problem without causing a fall out, these neighbours have already had major disagreements with other neighbours. the only thing Ive had with them was a little strange they asked me to stop the birds flying over their garden and dropping bird poo on their washing.
