This beautiful old Beech Tree is looking very sad and not leafing as it should. Please could someone look at it? It is on the verge outside 54 & 56 Charterhouse Road. Thank you.

  • Our contractor has been notified to take the appropriate action.

  • The Crab apple is sadly, declining in health with approximately 15% of live canopy remaining (presumed drought related). To attempt to prune the tree would induce further stress to an already stressed tree, which would heavily rely on the tree having sufficient energy levels to occlude pruning cuts which the tree would never recover from. Works are raised to have the tree removed and a replacement added to the planting schedule 2024/25 which planting starts in November running through to March 2025.

  • Please accept our apologies for the delays, the works have been taken off our incumbent contractor and issued to a third party contractor for completion. We envisage that the contractor will take 6-8 weeks to complete them.

  • The third party contractor is making progress working through the backlog of works and we envisage that they will undertake the works raised for this enquiry soon. Thank you for your continued patience.
