Is a neighbour responsible for clearing away large parts of their tree that have fallen on our property during a storm
Nobody is liable for an act of nature. You are responsible for the portion of the tree that fell on your property. Your neighbor is responsible for the portion of the tree on the neighbors property.
The people who actually own the house should be responsible for the cleanup of the tree as long as the tenants had nothing to do with it falling down. Sometimes a landlord will reduce a tenants rent if they handle things that are the landlords responsibility.
In the sentence "A large tree fell down during the storm," "down" functions as an adverb, modifying the verb "fell." It indicates the direction of the falling action.
The neighbor is responsible for his own property. If your tree fell on his house, he is responsible for the damage. That is how homeowners insurance works. * No one is "legally" responsible if it was a result of a natural occurrance. The neighbor whose tree fell and damaged the other person's property cannot be held accountable for a situation that was not in his or her control. If the tree fell as a result of a storm, the person whose property was damaged should claim it on their homeowner's insurance is possible. If it fell and damaged property due to it being trimmed or removed, the liability lies with the person who was taking the action. It would be a nice gesture if the neighbor who owned the tree agreed to share the damage cost, but in the majority of cases he or she cannot be held legally liable.
The portion of the tree that falls on your property is your responsibility. You can also trim a tree which hangs over your property line but not to the detriment of the tree's health. It is always best if neighbors share in the responsibility of maintaining a tree which covers two properties, but that obviously is not always possible.
Fell over means that I tripped or stumbled and landed face down on the floor. The tree fell over sometime during last night's storm.

Depends who owns it.
No one is responsible or liable for an act of nature. It's up to the owner of the property is he wants to replace a storm damaged tree. The tree is not a covered structure under a homeowner insurance policy.
If the tree was not dead already and clearly so then your insurance would pay for the damage to your house. A storm that causes the tree to fall is considered an "act of God" and the neighbor is therefore not responsible for the incident.
Each property owner or your insurers will be responsible for removing that portion of the tree that is on their own property. A property owner nor their Insurer is liable to another for acts of nature unless it can be proven that they were negligent in some way.
