Same here,now the estate is pretty old,we all have 6ft fences,sorry I mean some of us,there is a private estate near me,where it's open planned,but much more spacious than the new builds,..some keep the frontage nice,..some don't .

Re: Open-plan Gardens
I wonder why they make these rules?I noticed a lot of American homes don't have borders as such. Do you think that was copied here? Their houses and gardens are, mostly, much bigger than ours so it probably doesn't notice that the neighbours are sneaking over the boundaries etc.

Sorry, that's a bit off topic but they remind me of the American homes.

I will give you a laugh,..but really it's not funny,...a neighbour that I pass on my travels,is a compulsive obsessive cleaner,she's worse than me,..her frontage is absolutely immaculate,...next door,..you have never seen such a tip!..and...wait for it.
They have white stones all the way along the edging of their garden,and they are everywhere!..I swear they play with them!
