    The walnut tree in the front garden is in a very poor state with dead branches and dead leaves. We would like to undertake some dead wooding and crwon thinning to reduce the risk from the dead wood to the owners, the neighbour and the public. We would like to see if this imroves the health of the tree. In addition a silver birth needs pollarding as it has grown very heavy with leaves. Some of these leaves cause and obstruction to the foot path No work has been undertaken on these trees in the last 10 years at least.

    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
