Parallel with the wall? So you have two boundary features, the
existing wall and a new fence alongside it? Changing from:

|
house |------------
|
to
|
house |============
|

The fence will only 1.3mt wide,


millitons? Or do you mean metres - 1.3m ? And do you actually mean
1.3m /long/ ? A 1.3m wide fence is a shed.

The only fear i have is that i may get noise / vibration coming
through the fence into the house (living room is next to it), from
my neighbours gate slamming or kids kicking the ball against it.


On which side is the height difference? Is your land lower than
your neightbour's or higher? I'm finding it hard to picture your
neightbour's brats kicking a football past the existing wall and
across the height difference to hit the fence.

JGH
My neighbours property sits about 3-4ft higher than mine.
The fence will indeed be 1.3mt wide, as the figure of 1.3mt (or 1300mm) is the gap between the retaining wall and the side of my house.
So basically, you have my neighbours house then the 6ft high fence we put in to separate the properties (which sits on the top of the retaining wall), then a 3-4ft drop into my garden, then a gap of 1.3mt and you're at my gable end etc.
Hopefully this makes sense.
I've attached another picture.
