  • The tree in question is located on the green area on the roundabout between Laburnum Way and Faringdon Avenue. The growth has been considerable over the last couple of years and the overhang and root growth is very likely to cause damage to property. i

  • I would like to dispute whether this tree has been pruned. Do you have before and after photos of evidence that this work has been carried out. I have been advised that it appears the regrowth is between 4-5 years. There is considerable overhang.
