You should check this out with your local planning office. Since July 02
conservatories have come within the ambit of building regs; there may also
be planning issues. You are likely to find that if you are directly
overlooked.by a conservatory, planning will stipulate they have obscure
glass to maintain your privacy. I also seem to recall that building within
1m of a boundary is generally a planning no no.

Any idea whether the rules about "obscure glass" can be found anywhere on
the net? We have some neighbours who have put up a conservatory close to the
boundary and they've got clear glass and no blinds or curtains.
