The thread about the Fence has prompted me to get thinking again about my neighbour's "hedge".
30 years ago it was well maintained and kept at 6ft high. Then there was a change of ownership. I can't guess the height now, but it is over twice the height of my house and dwarfs a telegraph pole hidden amongst it. In the winter we don't see the sun until gone 11am. I have spoken to my neighbours but nothing seems to make them want to do anything.

Isn't there a 'nuisance' law which involves maintaining the height of Leylandii hedges to 8 foot? might be worth looking up or checking with the council.

There is a nuisance law regarding high hedges. It's part of the anti social behaviour law. The UK Government website explains it.

Google 'leyandii wars '. Entertaining reading. Falling out with neighbour is worth the light and 10k on your house price.

Wise words above. When it comes time to sell your house you must disclose any problems that you've had with your neighbours.

I spoke to Lynda about this aspect but as she pointed out the hedge became apparent some years back but wasnt considered to be a constructive element to be discussed other than what had been stipulated previously amongst the neighbour. It has now been realised that other than this aspect it was better to have discussed its virtue other than consider the consequence of what had occurred. I concur with what was said before any realisation of what became apparent,

Yes that’s correct but it isn’t returned in a search and unless you have the money for civil courts, there is dick all you can do if they don’t.
