It does look like something you would expect Bilbo Baggins to live in, lol!

there wont be an invite for the op now.

Blimey, if that's what it's for, the OP shouldn't worry too much. The neighbours will probably be dead from CO poisoning pretty soon.

You reckon they'll be back after our helpful comments?

(I hope so)

To me, the real problem is the trees and there's probably nothing that can be done about them either.

Hmm (strokes chin), tall trees adjacent to unwanted outbuilding. If only there was a way to deal with both at the same time...

We are not here to give (((hugs))) like that other platform where they call you 'Hun' and swear a lot.

Our advice should be accurate, realistic and honest, considering not just the immediate problem, but its context.

Maybe the OP will return after the council have given their response, and maybe not, but there's something for everyone to learn here.

From a personal perspective, I've driven hundreds of miles to view properties and then walked away from perfectly decent houses because of an issue like those trees. We moved away from our first house in 1987 because our garden was that length and a neighbour planted leylandii behind. They're still there blotting out the sun and we still send a blooming Christmas card to the guy that planted them, because he became our neighbour in the next house! Life is contradictory and complex.

I wouldn't have walked for the outbuilding thing. Some people even liked it. There's no accounting for taste and it's good we're all different.
