    T1 Conifer - Section fell to ground level. Tree needs to be removed to allow for building repair works to the adjacent building. The tree has historically caused damage to the brickwork and causes issues with the drains on top of the flat roof. It's positioned very close to the wall. More suitable planting will be re-instated within the garden
