Default leylandii nightmare


"Richard" wrote in message

Hi,

My neighbour to the rear of my garden has leylandii frowing. These block

out
the sunlight in my garden from just after midday.

Has anyone got any legal tips or persuading them to trim them down a few
metres?

Many thanks,

Richard


Have you tried just asking them? Quite often a neighbour will be unaware of
the upset that is going on around them because people don't say anything.
Explain that the trees have now gotten so tall that they are 'blocking out
your light', 'killing your plants', 'stopping you using the garden' - just
plain facts. Don't go at it with the belief that they have 'done this to
you' as this could just start conflict.
