T1 - Remove. Tree is over 25ft tall now and the tree is killing off/impacting on my beech hedge which runs the length of my rear garden and the branches are now starting to protrude over onto my neighbours garden. My concern is that it will keep growing and would create a future risk due to the height.

T1 - Felling of Goat Willow Tree - (approximately 30 feet high) and according to the tree surgeon who came round, its trunk is liable to splitting, due to how the trunk has grown over the years. It is very close both our house and the boundary with our neighbours. He also says that it will potentially be damaging our foundations due to how close it is to the house (about 3 metres). Therefore we would like to remove this tree and replace it for something more suitable for its position near our house.
