  Copper Beach Tree near entrance to drive on the left hand side of the entrance as you face the house. Tree has grown very large and we have been advised by a tree surgeon that it has signs of fungus on quite a few branches which appear to be consistent with the fungus biscogniauxia nummularia on branches that hang over the road. Therefore the tree could be dangerous in high winds as branches could come off and fall onto the road to hit cars or people. So please can we take the tree down completely.
