Split branch 50 ft above pavement
Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8197778.
Tree surgeon refuses to tackle saying northern power grid only due to power cables under branch. Northern Powergrid say they don't consider it an emergency and are working elsewhere! It is potentially a danger to life as above pavement leading to bus stop on A192 also potentially landing on traffic if windy.

I have contacted survivor from Avove to see if he can carry out an inspection. I have also texted the number for north county tree surgeons as they may be able to carry out work.

Due to the tree being a private tree no action can be taking. NPG have said they can remove because it is a risk to the power line. If this is still not done you will need to ask for an Arborist shut down from NPG and employ a tree surgeon to carry out the work.
