A couple of years ago the neighbours had a large conservatory built. The conservatory side sits alongside my garden fence to the left. No problems there. However I am into Astronomy and on dark nights like to get the scope out and do a bit of star gazing. Well that's been dashed altogether now. The neighbours have decided to buy a very bright lamp and sat it int the corner of the room. The light is so bright it lights the sky up thus ruining my Astronomy. I approached the guy a few weeks ago to tell him about it and for a few weeks the light never came on. However since last week they've now decided to go one better. They've put it on a timer that switches it on between 9.30am and 1.30am !
Bit drastic this is but I'm now having a conservatory built in my garden that will sit exactly adjacent to my neighbours. This will sort most of the light problem. The left windows of the conservatory will be frosted so we can't see into each other's conservatory.
My question is...is there anything by law they can do to stop be getting this conservatory being built ?
If I had my way I'd go the whole hog and have the left wall bricked up with no windows
It sounds a bit drastic I know but I feel they are taking the michael over this. I know I can't ask them not to switch the lamp on but all I was asking was for a bit of consideration.
