Ramblers, Wheatley Road, Forest Hill, Oxford, OX33 1EH
T1 - Beech T1 - Beech - fell because it is creating too much shade and is getting too large for a domestic garden sitting. I have agreed with the neighbour, who also is overly shaded by the tree. Our local tree surgeon advised that it was not practicable to reduce the crown size, and recommended felling and replacing with a smaller less shading tree. Replacement tree type is yet to be decided - possibly silver birch or pear. Remarks:
