Glasgow man ordered to chop down 50ft trees that stop neighbour's clothes drying and 'ruined garden'

A man who claimed his neighbour's 50ft trees made his life a misery has won a battle to have them chopped down.

Ewan Campbell said a row of cypress leylandii owned by William Ritchie ruined his garden and even stopped clothes drying.
