Cobham The Tilt Conservation Area - The tree is identified as tree 1 in the attached diagram. I do not know its species but it's tropical / sub-tropical. The tree is dead. It did not survive the 2024/25 winter. It is deteriorating, bark is peeling off and branches are starting to fall. I wish to fell the tree and dig out the remaining stump. I intend to replace it with a magnolia in approximately the same location.
