    The questions regarding insurance and possible damage due to falling are just laughable to be honest.

    The owner of the tree is liable for any damaged caused by the tree.

    Dreadful things. Nice as single trees but awful hedges. If you cut the top off them they sprout like mad from the cut. They also get bare at the bottom.

    Took down about 50 40ft ones about 15 years ago, all on our own. Only squashed one of our flower beds.

    FWIW we do not have a "Right to light" law here like they do in the UK.

    Came home today and to my delight the neighbours have cut the trees down! Not completely removed but topped down to shed height.

    Either pure coincidence or my neighbour next door knocked around before me but either way a happy ending.

    Till next year when they've grown back...
