Council planning record

Oak (T1) - The tree is a large tree in a small front garden. There are cracks to the house which are associated with indirect damage. The neighbours driveway is being damaged from the tree and this is seen in the form of direct damage and raised and cracked areas. This is in line with the tree roots. The neighbours garage is suffering from significant damage and cracking directly associated to the tree roots. Due to the age and size of the tree and its proximity to the houses it would not be possible to reduce the size of the tree. The tree is unsuitable for its location. Fell tree and replace with a more suitable species in the front garden.
