Huge tree over hanging my garden, dropping branches onto my land in winds and blocking light to my property.

Reported via mobile in the Nuisance or dangerous trees on private land category anonymously at 16:50, Tuesday 4 February 2025

Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 7085863.

This tree hasn’t been maintained for over 5 years. Since I moved here it’s never had any work and is now becoming dangerous and a nuisance. It blocks so much light and drops a lot of branches into my garden.

I have tried to contact the company that owns the land it stands on with no success. They have told me to go away. I have records of the conversation.

I just want this issue to be rectified.

Kind regards Jake
