Mobile View from your rear garden

Following on from various threads about views being spoilt from various neighbours items, caravans, trees, sheds/outbuildings under construction etc etc.
What do the dibbers look out on to out there back door/patiodoors? I chose rear garden as I would assume most people look out to a rear garden and spend time there in the summer . My view hasn't changed much in 10 years. Same houses overlook our garden as expected. Trees have grown .
And yes the dog does like to get in the photos.

We have a church and church hall at the end of our garden.
We have the local spot nearby where will buy some land and build our retirement cottage overlooking the Bowland Fells 😊
In our 40 years of house ownership we have never had houses overlooking us at the back, train line, school and church. I think that's more luck than judgement though.

I'm really lucky as we're not overlooked at all.

The is the rear view


This is the side, we've lowered our patio so more private and the bamboo screens us nicely.


The other side is more open but neighbours garden is about 1-1.5 feet lower so a 5ft fence on our side is higher on theirs so potentially we overlooked them but not them us. And with planting we're trying to give them privacy.

This is the view from our patio, little bit of green in the middle of our city.

When we first moved in 24 years ago we had great far reaching views over the tops with no houses in sight. Unfortunately in time a couple of estates have been built at the back and I can now just about see a glimmer of green and that's it. OP- for a split second I thought we were neighbours when I saw the house with the conservatory- I thought it was mine !

It appears from your first picture that you are indeed a very lucky family as the view from your house is indeed the "dog's b******s"

Sorry, I'll get my coat!

We are very lucky and have lovely views from 3 sides of our house. It is weird and the side facing the lane isn't the front!


The back faces up the hill and when the trees are bare you can see pylons but hopefully they are getting buried soon.


The front isn't bad either, dh enjoyed watching the farm traffic from the upstairs while he was working but is now back downstairs!


Such a difference from our old house where we looked onto a brick wall or down the culdesac from the front! We are very lucky

If I lean out my window and look to the left I can just see the North Sea
