You should just cut down trees even if you 'own' them.
You will be fined.

There's seven trees been removed from our garden in the last week,
and 25-30 this year. The tallest have been 70ft+ tall.

No fines, no reason for fines.

I see you missed the point. No suprise there.

You're right. I went by your drunken ramblings, not what you "meant".

But I'm not drunk

Then your keyboard is.

or rambling you just don't understand simple things.

I don't understand you, that's true.

Just because a tree is in your garden it does NOT mean you own it

If you own the garden then, yes, it does.

It's whether or not yuo own the land

I do.

and even then you still have to abide by TPOs

There aren't any.

even if you say yuo own the tree.

I do.

or can do what you want with it.

But nor does it automatically mean you can't.

Obvuilsy it depends what you want to do with or to it.

So in what circumstances _can't_ I take a chainsaw to a tree on my land,
given that there are no TPOs, individual or blanket, and I'm not in a
conservation area or national park or similar?
