“In England and Wales, it is allowed to reduce any branches that cross your property, but only even the border line. Just make sure not to enter the land of your neighbor or damage the tree itself.
“It is always best to have a friendly conversation with your neighbor first. Let them know what you plan, especially if you think you will need a tree surgeon.
“If the branches flow on your side, you are responsible for the cost of removing them, not your neighbor. Once you cut them, you are also responsible for properly getting rid of the branches.
“The cut branches belong to your neighbor, you can display it to return it, but you should not throw it over the fence – this is the sidewalk, which is illegal.
“If your neighbor does not want to decide, this is due to the disposal of it with responsibility, whether it is the waste of your garden's waste or transfer to the recycling center.
“Maintenance obligations can change over time and responsibility is often poorly documented. If any plans related to property marks show signs of address documents – the carrier can advise you – this is usually an indication of the limits that you must maintain and fix.
“If there are no signs” T “and the title is silent in relation to the borders, the borders are usually considered a border of a party. This means that the responsibility to maintain the borders is equally shared with the neighboring characteristics.
