The hedge backs onto his concrete side alley so no plants there. There is a small window (toilet?) and door.
Sun comes up facing the hedge and goes theleft / top of the picture if that makes sense.
The massive leylandi in the background is in his garden on the boundary with our neighbour.
The larger hedge on the left has also been hacked, hence why it looks thin. I was planning on taking it a bit lower anyway, but not to 5ft.
Wife doesn’t want me to say anything. I really sad we had problem neighbours in the old terrace (of the shouty hitting each other type) was hoping we were moving into an area where everyone was much more considerate of each other. Appears I’m wrong.
