Has anyone got any ideas on what to do about our next door neighbour's back garden, as it has not been maintained in the two years that I have lived at my property, and it is literally an overgrown jungle there now.


The garden needs a lot of work to bring it under control, but not only is it an eyesore, but it is now a home for feral vermin (foxes etc).


I think the property is unoccupied or I would have tried talking them, but there must be a way that the council can do something to ask the owners to clean it up?


Thanks in advance

I would add that we had this problem - where the property concerned where the freeholder was the council with two flats, one owner occupied and the other a council tenant. It took two years to get any attention from the council, they did very little. In the end the tenant and a friend did some tidying up - but it wasn't maintained thereafter and we're back to square one.


The council may be a little more forthcoming if they don't have to bear any cost?

    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
    • Moving into a new place and need both a wardrobe and a chest of drawers, ideally collection Friday. Thanks!
    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
