- May 2022Tree WorksTreesIn report
Notice of intent to carry out works to tree protected by Tree Preservation Order 41/00 - Cedar tree in the garden of Number 19 has suffered damage from storm Eunice and the customer (Valerie) would like the storm damage removed and dead wood removed. The branches need to have the end weight reduced to prevent further damage. This would be a reduction of 1-1.5m.The tree does appear to lean towards the house but this lean can only been seen from the main road and further investigation is required.
