Neighbour's garden
24 Answers
My elderly neighbour's garden is composed mainly of briar which I have to cut off regularly ( you need leather gloves to even touch it). It has now grown over the top of his 7ft high leylandii and great swathes of it are hanging over my garden and because it is so high I can't reach it and have to pay a gardener to cut it off which is expensive. I have spoken to him and his only response is "It's your problem - just cut it off and sling it over the fence".Is there anything I can do? Can I ask the council to intervene? I am at my wit's end and it's making me ill. When I moved in I had to get a new fence because his was broken and he showed now sign of mending it. I would be grateful for any advice. Thanks in advance.
