I am seeking to have the tree removed and as much as possible the stump and roots removed to make the area safe. The tree is taking up most of the back garden. The roots are visible and substantial across the garden and are a health hazard for me trying to move around and reach the garden behind the tree. The tree runs across each side of my neighbours garden. The branches snap easily which infers the tree is not in a health state It is also bringing excessive shading across my own and the neighbours gardens. The gardens are small and narrow and the tree is not suitable for the size and width gardens in this road.

TPO760 T50 Mature oak tree has died. We request permission to remove all branches to just leave the main trunk. Over recent years the tree has been progressively later to come into leaf and earlier to lose its' leaves than the adjacent mature oak. This year the tree has not produced any leaves at all. A local tree surgeon, Tom from T's Trees has inspected the tree and does not believe the tree trunk to be hollow. Photo2 shows damage around the trunk, which may be related to the tree's death. This damage was there when the current owners moved in.
