Fell 5 Ash trees ont he verge along the rear garden. Tree 1 comprises 3 trunks from a common base. The trees overhang my garden and the public road, Pringle way at the rear of the house. Fell because of excessive branch shedding with branches falling onto the road and my garden and low amenity value. Falling branches are sometimes quite large and pose a risk to pedestrians and drivers as well as garden occupants. One branch was so large it broke through one of the fence panels. I would like to replant 2 silver birch trees with more appropriate spacing to allow more attractive canopy development.
