Motion Detection Light Crystal Palace Rd


Recommended Posts

Hi all.


One of the houses on Crystal Palace Rd with a garden facing onto my back window on Ulverscroft Rd has an incredibly bright and invasive motion activated light on its rear wall. The light points directly out at our property, and flashes on frequently during the night, lighting up all the bedrooms in my house. Is anyone else aware of the issue? I'm having trouble distinguishing which house the light belongs to, but it is really becoming an issue as it is now constantly on.

Thank you!

Why not write a polite letter and copy to all the houses you think might be the problem. Say that the light is being regularly triggered and points into your windows. I'd guess the sensor might be picking up fox or other animal movement (which the user probably doesn't really want) and it may not be lighting up their property properly (it should be directed into their garden, not against houses). If you are polite and helpful (even suggest they might want to come and see the effect from your windows) then maybe they'll cooperate. Better to start friendly. A friend recently had a break-in and was severely traumatised by it. That may have happened to them too.

As the offending light is on a house directly behind you then of course you will know which house it is -

they are small gardens along there, one on one.


What is it you want anyone else to do?


Is this a searchlight you are describing? They are possibly away after fitting a light as a burglar deterrent

and you could be blowing their cover. Blackout blinds are cheap and no one will be climbing in your windows

late at night that's for sure.

I had this problem with a local school. Their playground security light penetrated into our bedroom like the light of a bright sunny day. It was torture. I rang them up. They didn't know, they adjusted it and they even wrote me a nice apologetic letter.

What an odd post. Your comment was very unhelpful and this further comment shows that you're quite an unpleasant person and possibly quite a troubled soul. My suspicion is that you've been here before under a different name. Your days may be numbered again....

Yep, looks like third time around for this one, the pomposity and needling style is quite distinctive.

I'm going to choose to ignore the rudeness of 'The Dutchmans' message because they just want the attention. I cannot identify the house as I am not familiar with the layouts of every house and back garden on the street. Black out blinds aren't an option, and the light is shining directly into the windows. I'm going to take the advice of the pleasant contributors to this post and ignore their unhelpful vitriol.

    • The dustmen kindly broke my garden gate this morning,  so I am looking for a replacement.  I could make a complaint to the council, however I know I will have to prove it and provide a receipt,  both I can't provide. Many thanks. 
    • My front gate has expired! Does anyone have an unwanted one - ideally wrought iron? Many thanks. 
    • Do also remember that, whilst this is the original there is an unrelated FB presence with a (very) similar name, which might also be prayed in aid. 
    • Yet another increase, its absolutely disgusting. I was charged £7.95 to send documents recorded delivery last week. I asked for the Signed for option that only costs £2.50 but the Post Office refused & said they would only send them recorded delivery.
