I have just got back from my holiday and the Oak tree branch on the footpath adjacent to 39 The Dairy has fallen on my property into my garden . As you can see from the picture the tree branch has caused damage to my property and needs cutting back. As the tree is on a public footpath I believe this is your responsibility to clear the debris from my garden.

  • Resident says that the large tree branch is still leaning on his back garden and we have not made arrangements to have it removed.

    That it's too heavy for him to remove. There are no locked gates and the garden is accessible .

    Please see previous note on 17 / 09 .
    Thanks
