Check, double check, and triple check the planning regulation laws and find out if you and your neighbours have any rights in forcing him to remove his building.
Although I expect very much that youve left it too long to be able to do anything about it.

i think something becomes ok after 7 years without planning. (just had a mate with an issue)

those pics are shocking.

ask neighbour if you can borrow a 10mm wood drill bit!

If you put a large water feature next too his conservatory wall or leave a hose running down his conservatory wall it will make it very damp and ruin his interior decor alternatively invite all the retro bike posse round for a barbecue and we will kick crap out of him collectively :twisted: or just make so much noise that he complains and then you can confront him while we are all there

The seven year thing does not always stand as our neighbour had to remove part of his kitchen because he had no planning and it had been there for 16 years :shock: it was blocking an access route and he was an absolute arse hole moaning about our water feature and clock chiming and always cutting our bushes back and throwing them in our pond etc.so I grassed on him and hey presto he is o.k now and will be moving out soon.

I could also supply some dry rot spores to enhance the water feature.

I know throwing branches in a pond is a bit thoughless but (up here at least) you can cut over hanging branches from a neighbours tree but you are legally required/entitled? to put them in their garden as they are the owner.

Build a rockery using his wall as a back-drop... few feet of earth piled up against a wall tend to have an interesting effect..

Dry rot spores are a nice touch,potato up the exhaust pipe will surely put him back in hospital

My grandfather nailed a kipper under a table of some ghastly digs when he moved out some years ago...a modern update would be a mackerel zip tied to the front suspension to make his car smell interesting in a few days. Best to buy one that hasn't been gutted.

My brother actually managed to get a couple of mackerel into the heater box of the car of a hated manager the day before he went on holiday for a fortnight. He parked it at the airport and was quite unwell upon his return and the drive home!

Invite him into your garden to see the holes in the tree. Then beat the sh!t out of him

thats quite an abrupt response
'hey look at that!' BASH made me laugh when i pictured it

So he's not man enough to ask YOU to remove the tree? Bullies your missus instead does he? What a cowardly old git!
Seriously, you could possibly save the tree. Contact the Council's tree people, (a), to report the damage, and (b) to seek advice on what the poison is, and what you can do to minimise the effects. They can be pretty jobsworthy, so you might have to engage a proper arboriculturalist. To be honest though, the willow does look like it needs pollarding or whatever. You'll have a bare stumpon top for a while, then it'll grow back bushier, healthier , and more vigorously than ever!
It would be a shame if Mr Grumpy died before it re-grew though, cos he'd die happy, thinking he'd, at last, achieved something in life.
