I don't know for certain in this case but almost certainly legal there's a bunch of sightlines in london that are protected and you aren't allowed to block them

That's incredibly interesting, rules makes for wild and creative solutions.

Edit: Unless it's an HOA, lol. They fine you for being creative.

The article didn't talk about it being required but more of a benevolence. There were certainly examples of required lines of sight, specifically old St. Paul's, however
