There are four trees along the right side of the wooded area.The branches are over hanging my roof (property no 26).I have the fear they will cause damage to my roof if they break.I want to cut these back to the property line so if they do break, they will fall into the woodland instead of my house.The trees are protected and I have spoken to the land owner, they are happy for them to be cut back.The four trees are all sycamores.I have spoken to the council and they have sent me the tree preservation order.
