I was told the tree in my neighbours garden would be crowned, as it is causing our cars to get covered constantly in bird crap. Council turned up and cut off 5 branches. Rang them back up to complain and was told the can crown the tree its neede for the carbon in the air. Asked about the damage its causing to my car, and was told its my responsibilty not the councils. Bet if it was their car it would make a difference.
