There is a single Walnut Tree on the property which is listed under a TPO. The tree has dead branches at the very top of the Crown. In recent months several branches have fallen just missing property and is a risk to users of the business. With the loss of the summer leaves the dead branches are clearly visible and can be removed without causing further reduction of the Crown. Please see attached photograph and sketched plan.
