Our garden and the surrounding area contains lots of lovely old trees which
are subject to protection orders. I've got council permission to trim back
some of the lower branches of a big old yew tree which is leaning from the
adjoining garden. Some of the branches come six feet or so over into our
garden. The owner of the tree has also agreed to the branches being trimmed,
but has said nothing about contributing to the cost. Should I just pay up
and shut up, or should the owner contribute?

I'm new here, so feel free to ignore, but if my neighbour asked me if I minded him cutting a bit off my tree, I would take offence at him then coming around to me with an invoice.
