The giant ash tree behind my hose is unwell and I’m scared it is going to fall on us.

The ash tree in Mna Rd Park, behind my house has been showing signs of ill health for several years. Recently a huge branch crashed down in the night. Trees surgeons came to clear it up and we heard one say he was “ worried about our house “. I have paced it out and if it fell whole ( as ash trees tend to do) we would be crushed. As we are coming into storm season, and the tree is obviously ailing, I am very scared. Also the roots are probably under our property, so if it wet to fall the other way, it would be bad too. Please could you remove it or make it short enough that it won’t fall on us? Also, another totally dead tree in the same play park has a sign saying it was to be removed on 24/7/2025 but it didn’t happen. Thankyou for taking the time to read this, I hope you can help us befor something bad happens. Jill Hembury.
