Cutting a tree down
beast5680:
friend of mine reports to the council for this sort of thing, they have just taken some bloke to court for downing a tree in his garden that had an order on it, he got fined thousands and has a suspended jail sentence for it, his defence was he had just bought the property and didnt know the tree had an order but apparently all orders and such like are on record with the loacal tree officer at the council and all he had to do was ask they would have told him, house is up for sale again now as bloke cant pay fine

A big no-no i`m afraid [-X, tree preservation orders are taken very seriously by local authority, national heritage organisations etc. You should have checked with the council............. there may be trouble ahead..... :doh:

Oh dear this is not lookin good
I don't live in a conservation area I know that much if I get in troble so be it if they make me sell the house to pay the fine I'll quit work n claim of the state as unable to work because of stress
Bishops Finger:
Its obviously down to the religious leaning of the tree as to how well its protected...
