Approximate location: the centre of the postcode, not the exact property.

Proposal

T1- Remove all deadwood from horse chestnut overhanging public footpaths & main road. This tree has just dropped a large branch into the properties grounds. T2- Fell to ground level silver birch trees with fungi. This tree isn???t in good health and has the potential to hit the property if it fails. T3- Dead sycamore tree to be felled to ground level. T4 - Dead oak tree to be felled to ground level. T5- Mature beech tree to be pollarded as has fungi at the base and on the main stem. This tree is overly mature and would be catastrophic to its surroundings if it fails. T6- Beech trees x2 to be pruned back from property as branches are touching roof / gutters.
