An opinion:
OK.....one dissenter......Leylandii cypruss makes a beautiful
hedge.....had
a neighbour problem and planted one as a shield .........working
perfectly.....have since sold the property and the new owners are in
love
with the 'hedge'.......about 25 odd feet tall and still
growing......spoke
to the new owners only a few days ago and they have no intention of
stopping

The neighbours may very soon have a remedy with the legislation
currently going through Parliament, which will give councils the right
to cut down a hedge to a specific height if the two people cannot agree.
It is being done because of the large numbers of disputes, almost always
involving Leylandii, some of which have erupted into violence, (the
disputes, not the leylandii).
