Well, guess what? The monuments have somehow been "lost" since the ridiculous viewplanes were originally established and so - somehow - a new survey was conducted. That led to re-drawing the viewplanes and the result is that Fenwick encroaches on them. Nothing to do with the developer, nothing to do with the design - it is all just bureaucratic nonsense. The entire concept should be eliminated.
