    Fell 1x Weeping Ash of DFTPO 152 (A1) due to presence of a fungal bracket around the base of the tree which now covers half the circumference of the trunk. Significant swelling of trunk to 2.5 metres high from ground level, with ring-cracking of the bark above the swelling. Vitality in the crown of tree is poor with dead branches and a thin crown. Minimal response growth higher up, if it snaps the tree could fall onto the adjacent footpath, the road or the property.
