Dear Cheui May,

Please see below:-

1. You have to first consider what is the purpose behind being `attacked' by a poison arrow.

2. If there is a pointed object e.g. like a pointed pencil or the edge of a building aimed anyway directly towards the main door, this is a poison arrow.

3. If it is a lamp post, look or imagine it as a knife slicing thru the main door i.e. tangent or perpendicular to it.

4. Otherwise, if you are standing on the main door looking outside and the lamp post is on the right side and does not `cut' the main door this is not a threat.

5. Is there a gate or fencing between the telephone post and the main door. Is there other `blockages' between them e.g. a hedge?

6. It is not so much of blocking `clear space' but does it slice thru the main door area? It is difficult to visual unless one has a picture. If there is some `obstructions' e.g. plants in clear sight of the telephone pole and the main door the better.

Then, I would `pity' the owner especially if it on unstable ground (where landslides may occur). Unless the site has solid e.g. granite foundations and huge e.g. as many castles in Europe are. Frankly, what can one do in such a situation other than build a `prison' environment of tall walls surrounding the house.

In reality, (unfortunately) sometimes it would be better off moving to a new house than to `try' and fix all the problems. Provided if they can be fixed in the first place.

If you can have a sketch of how it looks like would be better as it is difficult to visualise from the description.

Warmest Regards,
