neighbour built badly built 10 foot boundary wall and fence

He's not a builder - a property developer, although I wouldn't buy a house from him. We did have some concerns about the wall falling over particularly as he's built it on tree roots from trees that have been cut down but I'm putting a veggie patch in front of it so it would only fall on me and not the kids!
It doesn't breed good feeling though - I just don't understand folk.

Knowing that I really would get onto the council, as it will be much harder to deal with once he sells up. Also, you don't say what type of foundations were dug, but building on tree roots is crazy. Without being overly hysterical here a 10 foot high wall could do a lot of damage if it's unsafe.
It may also make your house harder to sell in the future as other people may not be so undestanding about the colditz look!0
