What we walked into
It was booked with another company who didn't show, then holidays and delays pushed it back again and again. Brambles were coming out of the side onto the stones and the neighbour's shed was vanishing under privet.
We took it from about sixteen foot down to ten, both sides and the top, in the rain. Every branch on top was as thick as a stump, so the chainsaw came out for those.

Turning up matters
