The photo appears to show rear gardens of new build homes with no greenery.

All that can be seen is fence after fence, with parts of the boundary seeming to curve round.

It's not known where or when the picture was taken but it looks to have been snapped from a neighbouring home's window.

And social media users were shocked by the apparent bend in the fence.

The first person said: "Are the boundary lines this skewed too?"

A second asked: "How do you like this planning and architecture?"

Another commented: "You would think that they could have got the fence line straight."

A fourth said: "I worked as a fencer for over 15 years and the workmanship and quality of that fencing is shocking!"

The account posted the image with the caption: "Wouldn't it be nice if the developers threw in a fruit tree in at the bottom of each garden."

One person replied: "Problem is, 99 per cent of the new owners would then remove those trees because they can't be arsed to look after them and can't deal with the few leaves that fall off them in the autumn."

Others pointed out the tragedy for wildlife created by such design.

"Hedgehogs don't stand a chance" one lamented.

Another replied: "Really hope new owners and neighbours can come up with some mutually acceptable solution. Hedging possibly instead of fence panels."

Others said they would be "depressed" living there. One chimed in "zero imagination" while another described it as "tragic".

But others on Twitter saw the funny side.

"As a teenager that would be perfect for garden hopping. Who can do the most fences and get back to home base without getting caught," one quipped.
