We have a large Yew tree along a boundary in our rear garden. We would like to fell this tree. The tree causes excessive shading and also drops needles preventing grass growth. The tree dose not look healthy and has some dead branches. We have discussed the felling of this tree with our adjoining neighbour and they would also like the tree to be felled. It causes shade on their garden too. The tree is on our side of the boundary. We have three other large trees in our garden which we are planning to keep.
