By (user no longer on site) OP     over a year ago

oh not happy with what Im hearing, as locals are in uproar at the goings on at our local swinging house/club. They reported in the local papers a few months sgo that they wernt happy with living on the same road as the alleged swinging house. I have just been informed by someone on here that residents are now taking photos of peoples cars and people coming and going from the house..and posting them around the town on trees! Even taking pics of inside the house, of people maked!!(so someones on the inside so too speak) All a bit worrying dont you think?

I have messaged the co owner of the establishment and await his reply to this.. all very worrying as we are booked to go there Saturday!

Would think they might be breaking law taking photos of cars and people, and anything identifiable. Maybe a police officer or solicitor can clarify laws on that

My advice is if you don't want your photo on a tree don't go on Saturday. Is it a club or a private house maybe the locals are confusing swingers with clients at a brothel, although personally I wouldn't have a problem with either but disgusted of Tunbridge Wells is alive and well.

It's not illegal to film or take pics of anybody in the street or a public place. So they are not breaking the law there but advertising those pics on trees and especially with added comments or added informations or details should be illegal we would be interested to hear from a lawyer about this. Anyway we would attend to show solidarity

Under privacy laws it is illegal to film or take photos of anybody without there consent whether it be in a public place or not unless warned by signage as in the case of cctv which is monitored by licensed personnel only.

Not being deliberately argumentative but I do think that any club that is in a residential area is always going to face the risk of the locals kicking up a fuss. And to a degree I can see why.

Bugger.

Any idea how I can contact all the people in the background of the pictures I took at the British F1GP a few years back? Must be at least a few thousand or so to give consent before I can show friends the pics...

Because it's a house. In a residential area. If my neighbours held a party every weekend I'd be pissed off - the type of party would be immaterial.

It's illegality only becomes an issue when it comes to publishing said photos. The people in them would have to give consent, and to get their consent, you would have to tell them you had taken their photo. If it was a private photo, they would be none the wiser, though technically, you should have asked their permission.

I can absolutly 100% confirm that no pictures are being taken inside the house. And yes while there was one local newspaper report, both the local council and police stated that there was no wrong doing taking place.

There are NO pictures going on trees and we have been speaking with our neighbours who have no problems with us or the house.

This story is now a few months old and should really not be a topic of conversation.

what do you expect, swinging is a threat to society, in many peoples eyes, adultery, cheating, prostitution,

Children at risk, no car parking for residents, all things that will worry people,

where I live someone tried to open a Chinese restaurant, the locals mobilized, had petitions, marches and got politicians interested, result no restaurant, so shop has been empty for years.

ideally clubs should be kept away from residential areas,

That's not correct, as you need no consent to photograph or film in a public area, or to photograph a private property from a public place.

However some protection is offered through Article 8 (right to privacy) of the Human Rights Act 1988 and this can be used to restrict the "publication" of images.

If images were taken and used in an attempt to publicly humiliate an individual, then there could be an argument for harassment or character defermation

Councils have dim views for both swinging clubs & brothels as they both earn their money from being a premises where you can have sex if you pay a fee.

They are not bothered by the ones on industrial sites but in residential areas it can be tricky, we have been to parties where people have come in scantly dressed or half naked & this is where the problems arise & councils use pics to shut these offending premises.

If you do hold a party make sure to tell people to dress sensible or change when they get there, the other thing that fucks them up is parking as locals soon get pissed when they can't park.

Brothels & Swinging clubs are a grey area & unless you have an very understanding council don't open one...

"Would think they might be breaking law taking photos of cars and people, and anything identifiable. Maybe a police officer or solicitor can clarify laws on that"

If the car is on a public highway there are no laws preventing you taking photos of it.

There may be laws against you posting pictures on trees etc especially if you are adding text to them, plus the vandelism aspect.

You can take photos anywhere that isnt private land. Walk down the high street and shoot away to your hearts content - but as soon as you enter a shopping mall it is private property and the law s different. - just as an example...

No you shouldnt! you do not have to ask permission to take a photograph of someone in a public place. Publishing the image for gain is a different matter. I Always ask people when Im photographing them if i think its appropriate and I want to build a quick connection to get a decent shot, a stall holder at a fayre etc, but if i want to photograph you in the high street I will, and you can't stop me, all you can do is leave the area so you aren't in view.

That is true anyone can take pics of anyone/anything, using them pics to discredit/embarrass people is where legal action arises.

If the pics/number plates of people using brothels/swing clubs are taken to be used by local councils/local to build a legal case there is no law broken...men in glass houses can't throw stones.

You can shoot pornographic material by the way but you need the signature of the land owner on the release form otherwise you can be prosecuted...the same goes for any outside pics e.g. woods, industrial parks etc.

Lets turn this on its head for a moment and having been to a club that is not in residential area i think its not unreasonable for folk to be concerned if a swingers vlub/house or indeed a brothel on their doorstep to be honest.

I would not be keen as there are likely to be families with kids and as we all know rumours can fly round neighbours and before long kids pick up on things.

I am not saying those allegedly taking pics etc are right but common sense must prevail and would make sense to try assure those not happy that its all adult fun and explain in calm manner that being said if someone is dead set against it i doubt it will change their mind but at least they are made aware of the truth instead of rumours.

Know exacty where the house is, that you are talking about. Probably going to sound really hypocritical but I wouldn't be that happy if I lived along there.

We think we know where you are on about , does it have a string of blue lights outside ?.

If so there is no loud music , at least not when we have been there .

We have never had trouble parking as there are loads of quiet side roads nearby , though more recently we stop off at a rather nice nearby hotel.

The only time we have been concerned about the noise we were making was when it got really hot inside and we had opened a widow .

After we had all finished we were chatting and we heard footsteps and it became apparent that that window opened onto to street .

Mind, this was at about 01;00

Walking back to the hotel we pass the high street which is usually , at that time, full of bladdered teenagers squawking and falling about.

I think that area , as with most, has a more serious problem than with adults indulging in consensual sex in a private house .

Generally, but not universally. Try photographing into a bedroom from a public footpath (maybe from a higher point) and see what trouble you can get into ...

Also you need to remember that most police either don't know, or ignore the law. There are many photographers that have been unlawfully detained and had their equipment damaged by police acting badly.

your right to photograph people depends on the privacy laws of the country or state in which you are shooting ,and as this varies you may want to check beforehand . most countries in the world do not have well-defined laws covering this. but in general you should not have a problem in a public place

Oh the irony - you start the thread, which to be blunt comes across as you reveling in the salacious nature of the gossip you are privy to and then ultimately dismiss it as someone scare mongering.

If you were such great friends with the staff why on earth not check the facts before plastering them over the forums?

Whether taking pics is legal or not or whether posting them on lamp posts, websites or wherever is legal or not isn't really the point.

The threat of it happening seems to be sufficient to cause some potential attendees to have concerns.

Some 'neighbour' disputes can be resolved by negotiation. I doubt this will be solved as easily.

"Would think they might be breaking law taking photos of cars and people, and anything identifiable. Maybe a police officer or solicitor can clarify laws on that"
I am sure u are right on this one its a invasion of privacy as far as I know and against the law they r very sad though and they need a life I think ...

From the Met website.

"We encourage officers and the public to be vigilant against terrorism but recognise the importance not only of protecting the public from terrorism but also promoting the freedom of the public and the media to take and publish photographs.

Guidance around the issue has been made clear to officers and PCSOs through briefings and internal communications. The following advice is available to all officers and provides a summary of the Metropolitan Police Service’s guidance around photography in public places.

Freedom to photograph and film

Members of the public and the media do not need a permit to film or photograph in public places and police have no power to stop them filming or photographing incidents or police personnel."

"Legally they are allowed to freely photograph anything in public however it is illegal to photograph anyone on private property without consent "

Wrong under a cctv law that also can't face pubilc path due to data protection act, know that with pervious security company I own,

So sort of same thing here I belive data protection act has been broke, even in schools now you got to give permission for kids to have photos taken yes you say that's because of them being kids well that be also braking law under age discrimination act,

So the fact what they are doing is causing harrasmant and alarm by taking personal pictures from inside of house too, so it also brakes the data protection act , and if it is an inside job then the owners must know about this

The thing you have to watch is if the locals start saying it is offending them etc to the local police before someone acts first on them or the police will act on the sex act

My opinion would to be for the owners to either take legal action on the neigbours, or keep it low key for a while

There is a way around this on if you watch local police with camras as soon as they pull up they mention about the camras etc and if this is 100% right y do they blare faces this is the part were the data protection comes in you can film or take pics but when one objects it got to be destroyed or bleared under the act

The council say in the article that the owners of the house are doing nothing illegal sexually.. its not a brothal and anyone can have sex in their own property with any consenting persons or people they choose.. as long as they arent charging for it

anyone can take pics publically but it depends what they do with the pics that make it a legal issue and also if they are taking pics of inside the properyy whilst on the street then im sure that isnt covrred as a public pkacw

If they're genuinely not charging, that's one thing and probably keeps them out of the clutches of the local authority unless they have an adverse effect on local parking or something similar.

If they're charging they begin to slip into the realms of commercial premises with all the rigmarole/ paperwork/ health and safety/ commercial rates etc that involves.

Having a party & not charging anything can still get you in trouble if drinks (spirits,wine,beer) are being d*unk then its classed as an house is disrepute if multiple sex is being engaged on the premises.

Swinging parties & like brothels take fees & you can be charged for prostitution & get put on the sex offenders list.

Councils have an even dimmer view of swingers parties than they do brothels, both of these earn from immoral earnings & are a pain to the vanilla world.

Taking pics of offenders is legal if they are being used to identify people, taking of number plates is quite a common thing now as police encourage people to do this to people dogging.

A police friend said they are even thinking of giving 3 points on your license & penalties similar to kerp crawling for dogging, if it does it won't be long before this is stretched to swinging parties in residental streets..

The adult censorship on the internet is just the beginning of a crazy Conservative Government crusade on the morals of us UK folk.

Its the dress code & the mass parking which gets people in trouble, whatever way its glammed up councils think off paid swinging like brothels a public problem.

And so long as no money changes hand, there's no reason why the local authority should get involved.

If there are complaints about noise, parking, dress code etc that's another matter but all the more reason for only inviting people you know and not issuing an open invite online.

Get it right and people will want to come back and will behave sensibly and responsibly. If they can't, don't invite them back and tell everyone why they're not invited back.
