Three siblings in Essex were ordered to pay about £30,500 in damages and £178,668 in their neighbours’ legal costs after cutting down a row of 33-foot Leylandii trees during a long-running boundary dispute. The court found that the siblings had trespassed into their neighbours’ garden and acted in a 'high-handed' and 'bullying' manner.
