The Law is, - cut off the overhanging branches at the border and, since
they
belong to the neighbour, without quarrel tie them up and lower them into
the
next door garden without doing any damage to property or plants.

No.
The law is that you must offer them to the neighbour.

Kay,
I think you will find that once a TPO has been made then the normal law
doesn't apply.

True - you cannot prune a TPO'd tree without permission. But I didn't
realise the post I replied to was about a TPO tree - I was merely
correcting the poster's assertion that having pruned the overhanging
branches the law requires you to dump them back on the neighbour's
property regardless of whether the neighbour wants them.

I should have noticed - trouble was, the poster I replied to was one who
doesn't believe in snipping, and the relevant TPO bit had long since
slipped off the screen.
