  62 East Grove Road Exeter EX2 4LX

  Sketch plan: 62 EGR Dead Tree Location The cherry tree in our garden last blossomed in the spring of 2024, but then soon after dropped its leaves and has been bare since. We consulted a tree surgeon last year who advised the tree was dead, likely as a result of inadequate available soil nutrients for the tree, given its location in a small terrace house walled garden. We left the tree a year to see if it would recover, but in 2025 it did not blossom and has remained without leaf. A second tree surgeon was consulted recently and confirmed the tree is dead and advised it should be removed. The tree?s branches overhang a public footpath and neighbouring gardens. It is approximately 3 metres to the top of the canopy. We would like to remove the remains of the tree entirely before it becomes a safety issue for us, neighbours or those using the public walkway.

  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
