Neighbours who complain about anything

Neighbours tree hangs over our garden
These people clearly have nothing better to do with their time because they moan and complain about anything.; They don't even go in the garden anyway as the sun brings her out in a rash!

We are currently in the middle of a conflict with our neighbours. They're complaining because we trimmed a willow tree of theirs which overhangs our garden. They clearly have nothing better to do than moan.

| 23-4-2008 | That sounds good then Petralava. Willows do indeed grow very fast, so I will forgive you !! | Nikki |
| 23-4-2008 | Nikki -
My willow was pollarded three times in the last 12 years - but as my landlord would never cough up for the 18 month interim trims, it ballooned in size in no time at all, at a guess I would say it grew 2-3 metres each year, (that's height AND width !!)
Please do not worry about the we...more | petralava |
| 21-4-2008 | Poor tree, poor wildlife that depended on the tree for their livelihood.
I always think it is far better to try and work around a problem that has been albeit rather thoughtlessly created, than to destroy it completely. You could have had the tree pollarded maybe?
Now I am with you all the wa...more | Nikki |
| 20-4-2008 | My landlord has finally paid to have the 50ftx30ft willow in my 40ftx16ft garden hacked out, and I am so happy I can't tell you!
Yeah, I know it's bad for the tree to be gone, and truth be told, it was a rather nice tree. But as someone said previously - people should consider how big the t...more | petralava |
| 09-4-2008 | I agree totally with Norman, as I would never plant anything close to any boundary, you would think that people would apply some common sense as to growth of plants when they positon them so as to avoid such conflicts from happening in the first place, yes I have an idiot over the back who has plant...more | exasperated |
| 30-3-2008 | How old is the tree Gary?
Oak trees are a natural species, are very slow growing and are much prized for the beautiful trees that they are. If the tree is of a good age, you might be able to get a preservation order on it. That takes time, but there will be some sort of temporary halt to the pr...more | Nikki |
| 30-3-2008 | I only have 48 hours before my oak tree is cut to pieces by a neigbour at the bottom of my garden. Do I have any rights to stop this , I am a council tennant and have had the council round asking if I would pay half towards cost I said no. The only crime my tree has committed is to have loose branch...more | gary76 |
| 04-3-2008 | Why oh why do people plant young trees on the edge of their gardens when they must realise that some day they will grow and overhang the neighbours property. It happened to me and I just cut off what overhangs my garden.
When I planted a small Laburnum I planted it in the middle so it doesn't ...more | Norman |
| 02-3-2008 | I should just lob the thing down!!!!!! Plant lot's of Leylandis let them over grow then they will have something to moan about? | Allypally |
| 01-7-2007 | I believe you can legally cut down branches and return them to your neighbour if they overhang your boundary. I did this no problems to a neighbours tree as he was too busy. I found this page as I need to complain about my neighbours. I live in an ex council house, she rents, but I don't think t...more | Amy |
| 12-6-2007 | Why couldnt you just ask them first? Eventhough its your right to cut down branches etc. which overhang your property, it is still polite to pop over and say to them your intentions. It's not nice to have grown a lovely tree and then for a neighbour to begin hacking it down. It would look pretty...more | Me |
| 08-5-2007 | Oops, Paragraph 5 should read as follows;
Like branches, you are at liberty to chop off any ROOTS which protrude past the boundary line and into your garden. You do not have to ask permission to do this. The conservative safe estimate for a willow tree from your house is 18m. Unless your garden i...more | Macko |
