TREES IN CONSERVATION AREA
Decided
Mrs Emma Meadows

21 Valley Road Welwyn Garden City AL8 7DH
T1-Robinia- Fell to ground level as it is dangerous due to the decay in the trunk at the base. There is a hole either side that my hand can fit through to the centre of trunk. The tree has had branches split out over the last few months. The police attended the last incident last week as the branch dropped into the road I am applying for the 5 Day Rule to fell this tree as it is deemed a safety risk
