    T1-Sycamore, removal. T2-Ash, removal. A tree surgeon has identified a potential split in the tree trunks. He has advised that this could be extremely dangerous as sycamore could come away from the tree falling onto the public highway (Grosvenor Bridge Road) and Ash tree onto busy London road on the bus stop potentially causing damage/injury to the public. As the owner of the trees we owe a duty of care and to that extent to remove any risk the tree needs to be removed as soon as possible. (see photos) In addition: - 18/03834/FUL - The roots have already pushed through stone boundary wall by other trees (An application was made in 2018 18/03834/FUL) which lead to rebuilt the part of the wall and now the same thing happening to this part of the wall , making it dangerous for visitors to the property, walking path user and the traffic.
