I want them to die.

They were not planted by the council. The houses are over 50 years old and the previous homeowners planted the trees then moved away. They just gradually spread. I will have to write in to let them know what i plan to do. Hopefully they wont stop me doing it....

Tell me about it; They won't even let me prune my own trees (reasoning; other people in the locality may complain)
If I could be arsed, I'd fight it in court about my "right to light" (seeing at the point I moved in I could see daylight out the bedroom window and now I can't because of said tree). But why should I need to mess about getting letters/pettions of support from my neighbours and court rulings to do this to MY tree that nobody else overlooks on to?
Yet on the parkland opposite they chop down four seemingly healthyish trees, with no notice to local resisdents, leaveing the stumps for people to trip over, and trying to cover up one stump with tiny laurel bush.
If they can do that to their trees, why can't I do that to mine?
My neighbour even had her monkey tree TPO'd; She was livid. She bought it herself, and planted it herself fiftteen years ago. Then some nosey council beardy looks over the fence and TPO'd it so now she can do sod all with it; Its not even indigenous to the UK (Native to Chile IIRC)!
I also have a Sycamore maple (which my gardener calls a weed tree) round the back that is TPO'd? Why? They seed like weeds, they grow like weeds, and the UK is in no shortage of them so why TPO it?
Grrrr.
