A Scots man has won a battle to have his neighbour's 40ft trees chopped down after claiming it left him unable to grow plants.
Ker Hamilton said trees belonging to William Buchan in Balgowan, Perthshire, were making his life a misery. He said the trees blocked sunlight to his £330,000 detached property - adding that they also had a 'major' impact on his children playing in the garden after school.
In a bid to have the trees lopped, Hamilton turned to Perth and Kinross Council. Officials ruled in his favour and ordered two spruce trees be completely removed while 15 cypress trees were to be reduced in height.
