Neighbour politics and relations can be a delicate balancing act. But one woman doesn’t seem to be too concerned by what her neighbours think.
can be a delicate balancing act. But one woman doesn’t seem to be too concerned by what her neighbours think, after she went ahead and put up a 100 foot fence around her front garden – all for her dog.
Cindy Copley’s beloved Cocker Spaniel Murphy lost his eyesight in his old age. So, the 66-year-old gran decided the best way to keep him safe was to build a 3-foot-tall, 100-foot-long fence to stop him from running on to the road by accident. Cindy doesn’t like putting Murphy in her back garden as apparently it’s too small, hence her decision to fence off the front garden.A neighbour said: “It’s the ugliest fence in the world, what does she even think she’s doing?Another said: “You can’t just put up a big ugly fence on a whim, it should to be done properly through the council and by asking everybody in the street.”“If I knew this was going to cause this much hassle I wouldn’t have put it up.
Her daughter Kate said the fallout from the fence construction has caused her parents great “stress and anxiety.”They have received support from some neighbours though, with one local saying it is “nothing but a decent fence.”Another said: “Who actually complains about someone putting up a fence, literally have they got nothing better to do?
“Maybe they didn’t want your kids running in and out of their garden and wanted some privacy good on you keep the fence I wouldn’t take it down.
