is there a law for how high trees can get?

[southeastastra]

because i am sick of looking at them, they're so high (about approx 25ft). can't see the sky at all from the window.

What a strange question. Whose trees are they, what is the situation?

why strange? they belong to a company that backs onto my garden

are they horse chestnuts if so worry not they are all dying like mad

no not sure what they are, weird things

have you asked for them to be lopped off?

not yet, was wondering if i have a case to say legally they're too high. should take a pic really to show you.

I'm pretty sure you can cut off the bits that overhang your garden. If they form a hedge, then there are rules as to how high they are allowed to grow.

I just found the idea of legislating tree heights quite funny.

When were the trees planted, before or after you moved in? What kind of trees are they?

Sorry, x post. Are they deciduous or evergreen?

will post a pic in a sec

I'm a bit concerned - my next door neighbours' horse chesnut doesn't look too healthy. Is there some sort of disease they're suffering from?

yes, they are all dying
your neighbours one is on its way out
it is all v sad

hoorah took ages to load, can you see the trees? ds there for perspective

HUGE

Nice bunnies btw

lol the trees are as tall as that all along the row of houses here
