- Mar 2023TreesTrees in Cons Area Works Can Proceed
We have recently had a Vegetation Management survey on behalf of National Grid over concerns about power cables passing through the canopy of a Monkey Puzzle Tree (T1) growing in our garden. It stands over 10 metres tall. The tree is still growing and stands only 3 metres from the house and is now spreading outwards over the flat roofextension. The base of the tree is also rising and starting to lift the oil storage tank and there may be future issues with paving and drains. We are in agreement with the surveyor that it needs felling to the ground.
