    Lime tree T1: fell to ground level. The tree is severely dangerous and decayed at the base and ready to fall over. We have already gained emailed confirmation from west berks the tree can be felled. Sycamore tree T2: fell to ground level. It is a small sapling that is growing into the brick wall right behind the public bus stop. If it is allowed to carry on growing it will destroy this wall and could cause harm to the public. Macrocarpa tree T3: dead wood removal and limb reduction of 2 metres. The tree has bad canopy health, lots of deadwood and the live limbs are showing signs of potential failure. I seriously recommend removing the dead wood and reducing the live limbs back by 2 metres, bringing the canopy into a more safe state and much lower risk of limb failure.
