The trees were cut down cos the Council keep having a go at us about overhanging branches hitting passing vehicles. They are also not very patient if you tell them that your tree surgeon is busy and cant come for 3 months - they tell you they will bring their own dept round and do it for you ( no doubt at exorbitant expense - to me ). The trees concerned had no preservation orders on them, and they were coppiced - they will sprout again from their bases so they have not been killed
