TPO T71 - Tree needs trimming
Reported via desktop in the Trees under a Preservation Order or in a Conservation Area category anonymously at 12:32, Sat 27 September 2025
Sent to Northumberland County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 8221292.
Since the last time the tree was trimmed there has continued to be significant growth of the tree and the tree now feels even more imposing and dominating over our property. There appear to be several dead branches which could potentially fall. In addition to reducing the light to our property it also impacts on our plants /shrubs through the loss of light.
There is also significant disruption caused by the roots to the footpath that runs alongside our property making the path uneven /a tripping hazard.
