I hope the parts news is good, Brian. Unless the tree was clearly in a dangerous state there is no liability on the owner for damage done to neighbouring property. Domestic liability insurance should take care of it anyway in most circumstances - of course if you were sawing it down at the time it probably wouldn't! We had a large apple tree at the bottom of the garden that was growing over the main road - you could hear tall trucks crashing past the branches from time to time. I was a bit worried about it as I could see no easy way to remove it without shutting the road or hiring a gang and traffic lights etc - not a cheap thing to do. In the event, we were away for a few days one Christmas and when we got back the tree had been blown over in a gale, and cleared away by the council. No charge, but it would have been very upsetting if it had hurt anyone when falling. Dave.
