Application overview
T1 - Western Red Cedar - Located in rear garden - The tree has failed. The foliage on the crown is sparse and brown. The bark is beginning to erode, and cracks are appearing around the base area. Given the species and the rate of decline, unfortunately, removal is the only option. We are therefore seeking permission to fell the tree as soon as possible on health and safety grounds.
