Five Day Notice: Lime Tree believed to be subject to a Tree Preservation Order (TPO). Due to adverse weather conditions, three main limbs of the tree were affected, with one of them breaking off and causing damage to the house (pictures are attached for reference). Notably, approximately 7-8 months ago, a substantial branch from the same tree broke off, posing a hazard to the public pathway. Given this history, it is our professional opinion that the Lime Tree poses a potential danger to both the general public and the client's property. In consideration of safety, we plan to prune the tree, reverting it to its previous state to eliminate any immediate risks, which will happen 23rd of January, 2024. The fallen limb will be removed and the other limbs will be reduced by 15% to ensure they don't fall as well in the near future.
