Proposal

The tree is causing damage to the retaining wall between my property and the pavement of Whipton Village Road. The tree is also pushing the boundary wall between my property and my neighbours property 84c. The roots are damaging drains under the pavement of Whipton village Road leading to rat holes apearing amongst the roots at the base of the tree. Please see photos enclosed with application.

19 Falkland Close Exeter EX4 5EZ
Oak tree on no mans land embankment which over looks garden of 18 Falkland Close, Exeter, EX4 5EZ. It has a large branch overhanging our garden. Tree surgeon Mitchell Tree Surgery has visited site and advised it needs to be removed. He says it is a large overhanging heavy limb which could cause considerable damage. Last year a large branch from a neighbouring oak next to It came down in a storm and caused damage. Our neighbours in number 18 and ourselves are concerned about this particular branch we wish to report to be removed. The tree itself has grown to 60 foot plus range and we all feel our houses are at risk. Sketch plan attached
