Discovered today that a neighbour has cut some large branches from a tree in our garden and shoved them behind a shrub in the garden damaging the shrub.


I have no issues with the branches being cut as they block light, and understand that the branches remain our property, but was wondering if we should have been advised that they were about to do it? The branches will need a lot of breaking/chopping before they can be put in the recycling bin.


The neighbour is someone I see almost every day, and have a good relationship with, so while being disappointed by their actions want to bring it up in full possession of the facts. Is it just a matter of politeness, or should they legally have given us some notice?

Just keep your foliage in order, anyone can cut overhanging branches etc if over their property.

My neighbour did it recently, no words exchanged about it - just the usual banter. He just dropped the cut branches over 6ft garden fence at nearest spot, if it lands on my flowers etc I'd regard it as tough.

If he's going to the trouble of addressing my responsibilities I can't expect him to remove the foliage or set himself up for any comeback from me if don't like where he drops it.

No need for legal considerations just keep your bush trimmed !

I love you lady don't give a fuck with the woman you saw

Cheers Kid, wasn't dodging responsibility - would have been more than happy to deal with it had they mentioned it was bothering them. Will let them know that that can be the case in future - win/win for both of us then, no damage to anything and no one getting annoyed.

    • Ugly...maybe..does it bother me..NO! I think its somehow reassuring to see theres still phoneboxes around. East Dulwich may well be getrified but there may well be some elderly people who don't have mobiles and kids who may have lost theirs adults ditto etc etc. I'd rather keep it than lose it...just because i don't use it does'nt mean its not needed.  there are many eyesores in the modern world not all of them as potentially useful.
    • I strongly recommend Balayage salon in Lordship lane as everytime I visit,they make me feel very spicial with thier profisionalism and care.   I have been going there for the last 10 years maybe more, and will never exchange them for any other. They are profisional, welcoming and they also always have an offer. I feel like a new woman every time. X
