Overgrown sycamore causing debris and safety concerns. The tree has not been maintained for several years and is heavily weighted over our garden and fence, resulting in frequent branch drop, excessive leaf fall, and ongoing mess. The imbalance of the canopy suggests lack of pruning and potential risk during high winds. Requesting assessment and maintenance to reduce overhang, remove deadwood, and ensure the tree is safe and appropriately managed.
