Proposal

Fell birch tree - in decline and presents a potential safety hazard. Its structural stability has deteriorated to the point where there is a genuine risk that it could fall, potentially causing injury to people or damage to property. The scope of work would be to cut down and remove the tree. we would utilise the cut logs within our existing gardens and plant a new tree in it's place
