I to am not surprised that Mynors is right.
Well it's fairly obvious isn't it? a nuisance is a nuisance. But I have to
keep telling people that what they think is a nuisance is not necessarily
what
anyone else thinks is a nuisance.
In my opinion if you have agreed to let your neighbour prune your 'nuisance'
off, then you have a right to assume that he will undertake this in a
'workmanlike' manner. That is; in accordance with good practice. So if he
just goes
and cuts the thing back to a boundary leaving a nasty raggy wound then it
could
arguably be 'wilful damage.' If he top-cuts the branch which then rips all
the
way down the stem, then it's definitely 'wilful damage.'
