Description

Section 211 - Trees are mainly all conifers that need pruning and reshaping. Fell dead Cherry Tree and 4 other trees. A Tree Surgeon has visited the property and advised that we need to reduce the height of most of the trees by half as they are extremely large and have the potential to break and fall especially in bad weather. A pruning of all these trees will also aid to the health of the trees. They are also affecting the foundations of our our buildings and lifting up patio slabs.
