Trees too big they are scratching windows when windy

Reported via mobile in the Trees blocking TV/phone signal or light category anonymously at 14:42, Tuesday 30 January 2024

Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 5511013.

The trees are too big they are catching the windows when it’s windy, they are also too tall they have not been cut back for 10 years. We get no light when the leaves are on the trees making our flat dark and cold even during the summer. We get a lot of mould as we are not getting enough light.
