    Tulip tree which is approximately 6m high - Dismantle and fell a diseased/dying Tulip tree in the front garden of the property (would like to replace the tree with another tulip tree or a similar but we believe that the ground in this area may well be contaminated. Previous tree in this location, a beach tree, had to be removed about 12 years ago as it was also diseased. We therefore feel there would be no point planting a replacement tree in the current location).
