    To fell a beech and oak tree which are both dying and the extent of the rot is clearly visible and are in danger of falling, and to grind out the stumps. And to crown another beech tree by 3 meters which is also dying but for which the disease is less advanced. I have provided photos and a map by email for all three trees affected with the numbers marked with a keyed map so they are identifiable. I have sourced advice and quotes from three sets of abroriculturalists and have booked All Seasons Tree Services Ltd to complete the work.
