"Thank you for your emails.
You are of course well within your legal right to cut the tree branches back to the boundary line on your side and I’m happy for you to do so provided you adhere to the following:
1. Only prune/cut up to the boundary line, that being the dirt line between Reg end of my front wall next to your path edge and my wall at the top of this dirt strip;
2. Legally you will also be aware that any infringement of workmen working over this line/leaning against the tree or any cuts beyond this line on a vertical plain is illegal and could result in charges of trespass and/or criminal damage;
3. Please dispose of the cuttings, we don’t want them - thank you."
So I asked him to confirm.
Apparently, it didn't and he was still proposing to prune the tree and said he'd update me within the week, which he did.
The above was only him confirming my legal rights.
I agreed to wait the week, but said I would be cutting the tree back to the boundary in any case, if his chap didn't.
So at the end of the week he suggested I go ahead and afterwards he would instruct a surgeon for his "side".
This made sense to me, so I contacted a tree surgeon I've used before and agreed to do the work.
Unfortunately, he's come off his bike & damaged perhaps fractured ribs and won't be available for 4 weeks.
As I've waited 7 years, I've decided another 4 weeks won't hurt and I'm expecting it to be cut end April/early May.0 -

Funnily enough, I had a note shoved through my door asking for some trees to be cut down / cut back, the thing is there not even in my garden!0

I'll come round and help you cut the over hanging trees. We'll then dump them back over the fence. Exactly what I did when it happened to me. They are taking the piss out of you.1

I can't say I'm bothered anymore. I just wish I'd got it chopped years ago, instead of being so Russell Slade like2 -

They are (rightly) very protective of their trees down here @Stu_of_Kunming and this isn't the first prosecution or POCA proceedings over someone ignoring a TPO to increase the value of their property.
Don't have a problem with it myself.0 -
