This willow tree has been reported already and needs taking down, it is dying with dead boughs, fungus present and bark coming away from the trunk. It is also too close to buildings and insurance companies will not insure the buildings against tree root damage. A report has been compiled on 29th April 2025, by EM Pell & Partners Ltd to Kier, to wait their instructions.
