Hi all,
I live in a property that borders a strip of "unclaimed land" (located here...)
what3words /// The simplest way to talk about location
W3W.CO
Every 3 metre square of the world has been given a unique combination of three words. Used for e-commerce and delivery, navigation, emergencies and more.
The last known owner died in 1858 (Major John Henderson). The area in question is within a Tree Conservation Area.
One of the trees on this land is a wishbone-shaped tree with one of the mature trunks coming down during Storm Amy and on to a parked car (written off).
This incident drew our attention to the dozen or so trees on this small strip of land. There is a mature oak tree. Upon inspection, the oak tree displays fissures and stress damage around 6ft from the ground. The tree is around 70ft tall.
The local authority has refused to take any action as the tree is not obstructing any roads (see Scottish laws).
They have refused to enter any discussion on safety, despite this being the major concern.
If I may, can I ask for your educated and expert opinions on the photos of the trees in question?. Is it possible to identify professionally the issues we should be concerned about, and if at all possible, what we need to say to the local Council in order to get them to act?.
Many thanks!
