  At the above address there is a veteran Monterey cypress approx 30m tall. There are a few limbs hung up in the tree that need removing but also the tree is in serious decline. The lady would like to retain the tree if possible. I have advised removing the tops leaving the more horizontal limbs. Its at the point where climbing it is questionable and needs urgent attention
