As a general rule any thing over 2 meters will need planning permission. you could consider plants that grow over 2 meters. bamboo is a good one to use.

It’s a hard one to answer to be fair as for any structure over a certain height would need playing permission or would have to go with building regulation and I’m sure that a 8ft fence is something you would have to get building regulation and offices to agree with and sign off the best bet I’d say would be to see if the neighbours had got permission to put there pergola up Becoz I’m sure they would of had to Becoz of the height it was going to end up at
