Proposal
311 To be felled. This is a very tall Pine tree which is clearly dead. It serves no arboricultural purpose. There are numerous large branches which are at risk of detaching and would cause damage to property if they fell. If the tree as a whole fell, it is well withing the range of the applicants house and/or adjoining properties and would cause considerable damage. There is no proposal to replant.
