Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Fell Ash tree G20:1 Ash. This tree has recently shed a large limb which is hung up in the canopy and a hazard. This tree has declining since an inspection in April 2025. It is showing signs of Ash Dieback, and I suggest it may be removed under a 5-day notice to remove a diseased tree Fell as close to ground level as practical and treat the stump to inhibit regrowth
