Neighbors are shocked by the sudden appearance of large wooden panels obstructing the living room windows of a property. Situated just inches from the ground in Bristol, the robust structure completely obscures the view from the street.
The Bristol City Council has confirmed the recent purchase of the property in Lockleaze but has provided no further details about the new wall. Speculations arise among neighbors who believe the house is currently unoccupied, questioning the unconventional construction decisions made.
One neighbor expressed disbelief at the fence, remarking on its obstruction of natural light and view from the living room window. Another neighbor suggested that a simple wire fence could have served the safety purpose without blocking the window, highlighting concerns about common sense in executing such projects.
A local worker raised safety concerns, emphasizing the need for housing providers to prevent hazards like potential falls from similar walls. Social media users have also joined in to ridicule the fence, with comments ranging from disbelief to questioning the decision-making process behind its installation.
In response, a spokesperson for Bristol City Council stated that officers are investigating the details surrounding the fence installation and will provide updates soon.
