One of the advantages of having a solarium is to be able to look at the lovely surrounding Mountain ranges.

Unfortunately people feel the need to blot the landscapes by building wooden pagoda structures. What a terrible eyesore.

Unfortunately you can never guarantee your view will stay the same unless your property is on the slope of a hill or mountain! You don't legally have any rights to the view either, that's the downside of living in such a built up area. At least they are wooden structures and not the metal and plastic ones.

Agreed a right eyesore on our part of A.

Every time a house changes hands a shed or some structure goes up.......& it never seems to get used & the roof terraces are not used either.

We spend most of our time on our roof terrace.

I don't suppose any of them have permission for these structures either.

What permission is required providing it isn't bricks and mortar, most pergolas and sheds are either wood or plastic

I wonder what they would say if someone built one that obscured their view!

"What permission is required providing it isn't bricks and mortar" I don't think the material changes anything - what if you built a two-storey house of wood? Any permanent feature needs permission and licence.

Moan of course, but there's nothing you can do about it. Happens in England all the time and a lot of residents in my village now have to look at a 41metre high warehouse for imported Italian Pasta!!! Council couldn't care less.

I suppose it's a matter of consideration for others!
