Overgrown tree in St John's Church churchyard

Reported via desktop in the Trees and woodland category anonymously at 14:12, Thu 17 July 2025

Sent to Bath and North East Somerset Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7893047.

Tree on the East side of the church needs pruning as the branches are almost touching the stained glass window and currently blocking lots of light.

  • The tree has not yet been cut back. The branches and leaves are hitting the church building in the wind. If the work could be carried out a.s.a.p, that would be much appreciated.
