Does not compute. With 2 acres, you'd be way more than 30m away. 2 acres is huge.

An acre is 220 yards x 22 yards (at least that's how I remember it),
thus it would be quite easy to be 30 yards from a neighbour. OK, it
could be 70yds x 70yds but even then you can't be all that far from
the edge.

It was 2 acres quoted. That's 34 times the land I've got. And I'm 20 metres
from my neighbour. Most people put their house in the middle of the land.
Most people don't have long thin strips of land.

So even a perfectly square 2 acres is less than 100 yards by 100
yards. Exactly in the middle of that puts you only 50 yards from the
edge. Who has a perfectly square 2 acres and who puts their house
exactly in the middle?

We have a 9 acre plot, we're closer than 50 yards to a couple of houses.
