Proposal

Back Garden T1 - Sycamore Fell as close to ground level as possible. Apply systemic herbicide to stump to prevent re-growth. A self-set Sycamore situated in the rear garden. The tree has outgrown its location and is causing structural damage to the retaining wall in the basement of Uden Estate Agents which now needs to be repaired. In order for the repair to take place, the tree must be removed to facilitate these works. Data via plota.co.uk
