Council sourceT1 - Rowan tree - Remove. T2 - Birch - Remove tree. Tree has previously been heavily reduced in order to retain but its proximity to the wall (approx 10") means that continued inexorable root and stem thickening will put pressure on the wall, which is a historic retaining wall visible in very old photos of the village. The client wishes to replant a species of smaller mature height, inset a couple of metres into the garden at a similar point to retain the aesthetic.
