Proposal

Tree 1 - Silver Birch - Fell - Tree is pushing on wall and severely lifting up surface of footpath which moves in strong winds. Tree 2 - Holly - Fell - Tree is pushing on wall and severely lifting up surface of footpath. Tree 3 - Holly - Prune back off building and clear BT line as per diagram on photograph. This tree does provide good amenity to the area so felling wasn't an option but footplate movement and any further cracking in the wall will need to be monitored.
