Laurels Sprayed?
Have crazy neighbours and suspect sprayed my Laurel hedge as there is a line of brown leave running along a certain area even though plants are growing well with sun/rain.
Do these leafs I've removed looked sprayed with a substance;

I think it's caused by the rotten weather we've been having

Depends if you want to fall out with your neighbour, They could do even more damage if you tackle them.
maybe just cut of the affected parts, rain would not do that, they’re tough, they can take rain without looking like that.
A tricky situation. You could knock and ask them if they would like you to cut the hedge down a bit and see their reaction.
Now we've got very strong blustery winds and heavy showers.
Quite a few of my shrubs have some leaf damage and the damage on the leaves of my myrtle look similar to the damage on your leaves, and my neighbours laurel.
It's not rain damage of any sort.
I think weather damage is most likely, but if you have a pic of the hedge that may give some clues.

A photo of the hedge would really help

It looks like the leaves have been damaged by the top of the fence during strong winds when the top of the laurels were blowing around.
I don't think it's been sprayed
