The message
from "Mary Fisher" contains these words:


Don't be intimidated by them. Three metres isn't high and if it's to
their
north, as you say it's not blocking light.

How can you tell, without seeing it? It's perfectly possible for a
tree, (or wall, or shed) to block light from a nearby groundfloor
window, making rooms dark. North-facing rooms and windows are more, not
less, vulnerable to light loss.

My neighbour has just lopped of the top several feet of his cypresses (I
think they're Lawson, rather than Leyland), lying NNW of my property. I
was surprised how much more light this lets in.

I agree.

But rhe OP said, "citing that it's blocking their sunlight (I don't agree,
as it's to the
North of them - if anything, it blocks my sunlight).

Sunlight.
