Council source1. Holm Oak near house - crown by approx. 10ft and shape to keep away from the building. 2. Holm Oak ? Fell - Growing at a precarious angle, some dead wood in the bottom of the tree which is making the stability concerning. Also growing into specimen trees affecting their growth.. 3. Holly trees at the end of the property - encroaching on the neighbouring properties to the rear, there is the potential of them falling and damaging the neighbours property and causing damp issues on the roofs as they grow over them - reduced by approx 4-5m to prevent any issues on the boundary.
