Posted by Landscape Juice on October 6, 2014 at 8:31am

A landlord is counting the cost of cutting down parts of three English oak trees without permission from the council.

Shabbir Ahmad, of Winchester Road in Tilgate, appeared at Crawley Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, October 1 charged with causing or permitting the lopping of trees in breach of the Tree Preservation Order.

Ahmad pleaded guilty and magistrates fined him £3,000 and ordered him to pay a victim surcharge of £120 and £1,000 towards prosecution costs.
