T1 Beech: Fell - The main concern is that the tree is moribund and that branches are beginning to fail and are a high risk to the road, neighbour's and front driveway use. There is also a risk of tree failure as the tree weakens as it dies, and holding roots become desiccated or diseased. (TPO 32, 2008)
