[QUOTE="Tarw Coch, post: 7914984, member: 1008"] As far as issues with neighbours goes, no and not really, it’s two different neighbours. First tree blew down around about 12 months ago into my field, it’s a grazing field so hasn’t made too much difference, neighbour hasn’t been to saw it up and I haven’t had chance, I will saw it up one day if he doesn’t beat me to it, it may take a while, no dramas either way about who does it as far as I’m concerned. Other tree blew down in storm Arwen, the owners of the field live in town somewhere, the land was part of a small holding that they used to live at but never farmed. They sold the house, buildings and a few acres a few years back when they moved into town and carried on renting the land out. I can’t see them wanting or being able to do anything about the tree themselves. I’ve never had a lot to do with them as neighbours other than exchanging pleasantries and to that end have got on fine but have kept my distance as “she “ has a bit of a reputation for falling out with a couple of neighbours in houses across the toad from them. Last spring they put the land on the market for sale privately. I have submitted several bids for the land, each time being topped by a mystery bidder but pulled out in the autumn when my last bid was topped. Not sure what the current situation is but I suspect the other bidder was the auctioneer/owner. It’s wet ground, taking any tractors/machinery there until late spring depending on weather is going to make a right mess which I can’t see going down well . Easiest solution would have been if they’d sold me the land, it’s crap timber so I’d have cut into lengths and burnt on the spot as the field is infested with thistles, docks and nettles so wants ploughing. As I say I can’t see them clearing it and was unsure what the legal position is, especially if i have to clear it and due to the wet nature of the land make a mess which is almost inevitable if it’s to be cleared before the grass starts growing in ernest or will make a mess in the growing grass. It looks like a bit of a no win situation for me unless it’s not legally my responsibility [/QUOTE]
