How long has his driveway been laid and who by?
I think he would complain more if it was cut down because the ground water previously absorbed by the tree would hold round the roots and surrounding ground creating a boggy area which would cause sinking.
How much did he cut off the tree?

Been laid since before I lived there, but no idea quite how long. Our house is about 16 years old, but was built before his, so somewhere between 9 and 16 years. Would assume by Persimmon.
Cut off a couple of decent sized boughs and the branches attached. He did it exactly in line with the fence. I didn't realise it was overhanging quite as much as it was, but the ironic thing is the gardener was due to come and trim it the next week, so if he'd consulted me I would have told him. The gardener ended up with just the front one to do.
