  • I am fed up asking you to cut back the oak tree outside my house. You have too duck down to leave my property and pedestrians. The tree is also encroaching my house. I have given you in the past exactly the right position of the tree even three little words. All I can say now is that if my house is in anything damaged by the trees branches I shall be contacting our MP. I have lived there 25 years and it has never been touched. I look forward to your reply.

  • Hi, this second reply on my tree issue is nothing to do with me as you can see it is anonymous it’s not stopping me from gaining access it’s just a case of random branches dropping at times and it being oversized and not trimmed. And also I have not lived here for 25 years as said previously I’ve only been here 3 years. So this other report must be from one of our neighbours

  • Thank you for your report,

    This tree was should have been worked on by now. it is not to cut it down to 6M its a dead wood and crown lift to 6M. That means branches/ suckers will be removed from the base up to 6M. Bromley Councillors, know what we will and will not do and have there backing. If it is damaging your property we can send our insurance section your details. Thank you. You will receive an email.
