Large mature beech tree, with huge limb over highway. Noticed today that the crown is very 'thin' with lots of light passing through (not normal). Looked at trunk and noticed lesions / staining (see pictures). Overall the tree looks to be suddenly declining significantly in health. Tree heavily weighted towards road.

  • Thank you for the enquiry.

    We have assessed the enquiry and the tree needs to be inspected by a qualified arborist. Tree inspections are carried out in accordance with the Council’s Tree Management Strategy. Should the arborist’s report identify safety related work this will be programmed. We will provide a further update after the arborist’s inspection.
