Lewis Capaldi Told to Lower Fence at £1.6m Home After Council Ruling

Citing immature hedging, the council imposed a temporary 1.6m limit along the neighbour’s boundary.

Overview

  • East Renfrewshire Council ordered a section of the 1.8m timber fence to be reduced to 1.6m where it borders neighbour Adam Dunwoodie’s property.
  • The adjustment aims to lessen the fence’s visual impact until new planting grows enough to provide screening.
  • Lewis Capaldi erected the fence for privacy and applied for retrospective permission after Dunwoodie complained it dominated his home.
  • In the same decision, the council granted approval for a sunroom extension at the property.
  • The estate previously secured consent for a recording studio and a triple garage, and no appeals or further enforcement actions are reported.
