Couple say tree needs to be managed as it's causing disruption near their home.
Rod and Lynn Moore of Heeley, Sheffield have been pleading with the council to cut back a huge tree on council-owned land near their home. The tree has been blocking light from entering their homes, causing roof damage, and presenting a danger to elderly residents with its falling leaves and branches. What's more, it has been causing cracks in the pavement, leaving residents feeling helpless.

"It's causing more and more mayhem and we are just lost," said Rod Moore. "We don't want the tree cut down, we aren't asking for that – we are only asking for it to be cut back to a reasonable level. We are fed up of sitting in a dull, dark and dingy kitchen."

The council has been inspecting the tree every three years to see if it needs any work, but due to budget constraints, it hasn't been cut back in six years. The Agency has reached out to Sheffield City Council for comment on the matter.

Meanwhile, another tree has been causing chaos in the form of a John Lewis Christmas advert. The story of Snapper, a lovable Venus flytrap, has been shared with the nation, as he grows so large that he's forced to be put outside. The main message of the advert is about embracing old family traditions, as well as new ones that may have evolved over time.

The havoc caused by a bush in Blackburn has also been another source of frustration for UK residents. It's clear that trees can be both a blessing and a curse, depending on the circumstances. It's understandable why Rod and Lynn Moore are asking the council to bring the Sheffield tree back to a reasonable level, as they can no longer tolerate its impact on their home.
