We are removing our shed and laying a new patio at the back of our garden. When the original shed was removed we found two small trees growing out of a wall behind the shed. It makes sense to remove these trees, as the fact that they are growing out of wall suggest they will become unstable and dangerous and may also damage a neighbour's structure (built adjacent to the wall the trees are growing out of. Our builders were unaware that we needed permission to remove these trees and has already taken them out of the wall. However, we felt it best to notify you so you understood the situation. Please see photos to show precariousness of trees and reason to remove.
