Size of tree next to my property
Reported via desktop in the Restricted Visibility / Overgrown / Overhanging category anonymously at 17:02, Sunday 7 July 2024
Sent to West Northamptonshire Council 2 days, 14 hours, 32 minutes later. ref: 6200665.
I have reported my concerns about the size of the tree on the Buckingham Road adjacent to my property previously. The two photos I have attached show the tree when I bought the property in 2016 and today. I realise that I can remove overhanging branches which encroach upon my property but my concern now is the tree’s size and stability and its potential impact on my property generally and if it becomes storm damaged. I feel at the very least it needs the top cutting out to halt its growth. I note that you have carried out remedial work on a tree just along from me on the Buckingham Road so hope you will consider my concern.
