To cut a long story short, I am going to be putting in an offer for my first house tomorrow but I have a question about trees!
In the back garden of the property there is an Oak tree which shades most of the lawn and back garden area. It isn't a huge tree, but its sizeable nonetheless.
The house is actually leasehold to the local council for about 967 years to come and what I need to know is, is it legal to just go ahead and chop down a tree in your own garden, or do you have to gain special permission to do so?
