I consider myself a good neighbour, but then I suppose most of us do, and have lived in my present house for a couple of years. The neighbours one side are lovely and those the other side are quiet and usually no trouble, (well the dog barks late sometimes but nothing I can't live with). I'm putting a small shed up at the side of my house to keep the mower, pots and tools in and she is complaining and saying she doesn't want it where she can see it. From my point of view it is the only sensible place to put it as it is on a hard area, is more secure there, anywhere else would cause major problems in digging up established shrubs etc, putting down a concrete base etc. I am a bit hurt that she would think I hadn't thought of her view (at the moment it is just my wall) and had intended to put up a trellis fence and plant with evergreen climbers which are of no benefit to me as I won't be able to see them but will shield the shed and improve her view as it is now, I have told her this. The shed will be about 20' from her house and the bit between her and me is her parking area and where her clothes line is. I really don't want to upset her but it is the most suitable place. Am I being unreasonable?
