We have a restriction from building fences or walls

What restrictions? where?

I think our deeds specifically state we are not allowed to erect a
wall or fence on the front boundary. A hedge is a bit of a grey area
but since there is one there already then I'm not concerned about
replacing it with another hedge. Also I prefer something living -
cheaper and nicer to look at.


I asked because I have a clause such as this on my property. I am not
allowed to park a car or caravan on my front garden. (after all with a 100
foot drive and double garage at the back of the house why would I?) But I
seem to be the only one in the street. I have been told it is easy to get
such a restriction removed. However if you don't want a wall or fence it is
not a problem for you.

My house is an ex-council house and I assume that they put the clause in at
the time of sale, but I now see that the council is dropping kerbs for their
tenants even in the same terrace.
