The tree (scotch pine) in the corner of the garden of a property on the corner of Edge Hill and Eastern Way is leaning at such an angle across Edge Hill that it is now extremely dangerous to traffic and pedestrians. Considering we are now in ‘storm season’ this tree needs to be removed as a matter of urgency.
