    1 x London plane tree. The tree is clearly showing some structural damage to the property, the roots system has been pushing the ground causing uneven surface and the property boundary wall has been cracked . The tree has also been cable braces in the past and is located very close to the property. We would like to remove the tree for any damage that may occur in the future
