Hi, we are wondering if a light shield (or similar) could be fitted to the streetlamp outside our home (12 Shaftoe Cres) as we are struggling with light leakage into the upstairs windows. This has been the case for some time, however a recent change in health has made the problem more acute and anything you could do to help would be appreciated.
