Not sure whether to accept this plot or wait for another....

Yeah, I think I will email them and just try to make it work for a year. I know no site is perfect, I'm not expecting full sun all day (and wouldn't necessarily want that!) But I do need to know its going to get some! I mainly want to grow squashes, corn, beans and brassicas so I don't need to grow them in my garden any more and all of them like some sun!
I do know the guy in the opposite plot (Who shares the side hedge he is just across the path) and I would bet he trimmed the hedge to fence height at his end, his plot looked very sunny in the afternoon and he was growing all the crops I would like to, so that's reassuring! As the hedge is literally overhanging I feel I definitely have the right to chop a few branches off!! I've taken a few photos to show the council....they must think I'm a nightmare with the amount of questions I have been asking!
DO you need the council to do it? If you know your neighbour with the low hedge, have you asked him how come his is low? He might help you reduce the height of the one overhanging your plot if you ask nicely. The chances of the council having the time, money and motivation to do it for you is highly unlikely in this day and age i would have thought!
