Hi UKTC, I am looking for a point of reference with regard to the law on 
fallen leaves. I have heard it said that leaves are no longer the owners 
responsibility on leaving the tree from which they grew. Is this a true fact 
or a well used excuse for avoiding leaf clearance obligations on adjacent 
land ? Has the adjacent owner any rights concerning  return of the leaves to 
their owner.
I am clear on the position with respect to fruit and overhanging branches, 
but have not been able to find any case law on leaves as yet.
Thanks for your help in anticipation.
Regards to all Graham Banks
