    T1. To remove the large Ash tree located at the very top of your rear garden on the left hand side. This tree is suffering heavily from Ash dieback. T2. To remove the large Ash tree located at the very top of your rear garden on the right hand side. This tree has minor signs of Ash dieback but overhangs the summer house and seating area in the rear garden and has already shed some large branches. It may be necessary to drop some of the branches of this tree into the neighbouring field and permission of the farmer must be sort for entry before any work takes place. Whilst great care and skill will be taken whilst dismantling this tree, damage to the underlying dry stone wall may be inevitable when taking the main stem down.
