My Neighbour's Tree Overhangs My Garden. Can I Cut The Branches Back?
Answer:
In the UK you have the legal right to cut back any branches of a tree which overhangs your garden. However, surrounded by legal terms, the branches which you cut down actually still belong to your neighbour (although s/he is unlikely to want them back).
In language of neighbourliness it is advisable to have a word with your neighbour before you cut put money on the branches, just so that they are aware of your plans and if they object you may be able to resolve this by negotiation (although officially you are in the right).
You do need to be careful when in actuality cutting back the branches. If you cut off any which are in reality on his land then he could accuse you of wreckage to his property. If this concerns you, it may be prudent to have a tree surgeon in, but you would have to suffer the cost of this. Not your neighbour.
Comment: What if he wont take the branches back
Answer: Yes, you can legally cut the branches subsidise of your neighbor's tree, but as Hedgehog said, it would be smart to talk with your neighbor about this first.
If it is a citrus tree it should be pruned hindmost correctly, actually most trees need to be pruned correctly so be sure that you do so with thinking.
In the case of a tree surgeon being called upon, impossible to tell apart rule of payment applies.
