Generally max heights are 1 metre at front of property, 2 metres at the rear.

This also applied to hedging (and the dreaded leylandii) until Prescott (deputy PM) got hold of the rules, screwed with them, and tagged the High Hedges Law onto the ASBO legislation.

Now if you feel your neighbour's hedging is too high you have to PAY £hundreds to make a complaint, then hope the local council's tree inspector does his job and slaps an ASBO on the neighbours forcing them to keep the hedge to a maxiumum height he determines.

But here in Cardiff you pay the extortionate fee and wait, and wait, and wait.......

it seems to me, that the law wants to protect the intruder, not the poor householder, pc and the world gone mad, a home owner must let a intruder in and he must not hurt himeself, in doing so,.. let us get back to the real world of thugs, and criminals, and keep them out..
