Bonjour!

 

"The owner of a tree is free to come upon your land to prune or to recover prunings without committing trespass, even if you refuse him permission to do so."

 

Talk to me. :001_smile:

 

Kind Regards

Not as far as I am aware, but of course I'm not a 'legal eagle.'

 

I think this link outlines it quite well Gaining Access to Neighbour's Land and I'm sure it's consistent with Mynor's book (but end of the day n eyes are too tired to read such small print.)

 

Cheers..

Paul

Permission is required by law otherwise its trespassing, but its a little different with trees and owners of, as you can not refuse access if the only way of abating the nuisance is via access over your land, they still need to ask, and you can stipulate conditions such as timings, and what machinery they bring onto your land. Look up, i think its called "Access to neighbouring land act" i would need to look it up again but anyone who has recently done Tech cert will know. The act of theft of branch and cordwood, or fruit is defined as Conversion and to gain access to someones land without permission is Trespass.
