Massive fence appears blocking living room window’s entire view

neighbors have been left scratching their heads after a living room window’s view was blocked by a massive garden fence.

Large wooden panels have completely obscured the view from inside after being placed just centimeters away from a house in Bristol.

The home is currently unoccupied, but workers were seen carrying out construction at the property this week.

It is understood that the fencing was installed to protect and separate the house from a parking area.

But one neighbor said: ‘When I initially saw the fence, I thought just the same as everyone else who’s seen it really – I mean, what were they thinking?

‘It totally blocks the living room window from any light and view. Someone described it as daylight robbery, which did make me laugh!’

The property with the large fence built outside its living room window is based in Lockleaze, Bristol.

The neighbor added: ‘A fence was then put up in front of the window as there’s a gap between the house and driveway that maybe a small child could fall down, but it blocks the window.

‘All it really needed was some rails, and the natural light would still enter the house.

‘The only reason I can think of is that there is a gap between the house and the parking spot that a child could fall between, but surely a wire fence would stop that possibility and still let natural light through the window.’

A local worker said the drop would be considered a hazard, with a lot more pressure on housing providers to prevent hazards like the fall from this wall.

Others have taken to social media to mock the fence.

One wrote: ‘Oh my goodness, that is beyond stupid!’

Another said: ‘This is ridiculous, surely the person who put that up must have questioned it? They must have some common sense!’

There were rumours that the property is owned by Bristol City Council, but it has said it is not council-owned.
