Default Nasty trees overlooking my garden?

A neighbour has some trees which are right up against the boundary and they
are growing across my garden, how can I make him prune them so I do not have
to suffer their presence?



As I understand it (but IANAL) you are legally entitled to cut back anything
growing over your garden to the boundary; you are however obliged to offer
back the cuttings. However, I suggest a friendly approach first if that is
possible to ask him if he would prefer to do the job himself. He may not
realise that they are causing you any problem.
