    Leylandii - I would like the tree to be cut down, as it appears to be rotting inside. The crown had 3 sections, one of which broke off in the storm, leaving the other 2 section vulnerable and likely to come down in the next storm. The first section narrowly missed me, when it came down whilst I was inspecting the garden. There are 2 adjacent leylandii which appear to be in good health.

    There is one lone willow tree that is clearly dead because there has been no foliage since last autumn. It is very close to the hedge separating us with number 5 Askew Road. We are concerned that branches falling from the tree may cause damage and/or injury to children in both gardens.
