Yes we have a neighbor that's got a Leylandi hedge .
When we built our house 23 years ago there was only a chicken wire fence down our boundary on one side .
The neighbors then planted a Leyladi hedge 6 inches away from the chicken wire on there side, I said to them it was too close (But we know now they were selling up and not bothered).
Well we have had about three different neighbors since then, all but the latest cut the hedge twice a year on both sides.
The latest neighbors simply refuse to cut there hedge on our side (it's blocking our way down the side of our house and and along a path down the garden) , I have pointed out it's there hedge and they are responsible for it, they just said that they do NOT have to cut the hedge on our side.
They said that I can do it , to which I said I have far to much work to do in my garden and I do not have time to cut there hedge.
I showed this neighbor what it was like on our side today, she said we have cut the hedge for you, her son had made an effort to cut the height down (but it's still over 2 metre's and it's taken him five weeks to do it
) he cut what he could reach from there side, left all the branches all over our garden, not cut off long branches on our side and these stick up about a metre above the hedge and branches come on to our garden about a metre.
What can we do ?.
