You might need to contact Council about this matter. I understand that will pull it out of ground if possible and replant it. Do not just chop it down. I think it illegal. From memory I think Council charge around 400 euros. Cheaper to take legal route

Thanks for the great advice. I think he will be better off having the over- heavy and dead top trimmed. At the moment, in these winds, there is an imminent danger of it breaking and falling across three adjacent properties.
One other neighbour just called in a tree surgeon, and had cut right down, just leaving the trunk protruding about I metre in height...no denunciation.
Sadly, the tree appears to be dead.
