    Could you mount the cameras on a post, plant or similar so that they are not attached to the building? Would that get around the no-alterations clause?

    Basically no, upon reading more into the covenants. I cannot do anything to cause a nuisence to the developer or occupiers of other properties. Will remove the cameras and try & get permission then get legal advice if needs be.

    Thanks for everyones advice and comments, not sure theres much more to say so thank you & goodbye.

    Just remember that your definition of nuisance, may not be the legal one which applies to covenants
