Thank you so much guys.

I am in the FY6 postcode - please do feel free to shoot me a PM on here if anyone wants the job.

Are we all agreeing that taking the tree down is perhaps the best course of action?

Thanks,

O

I'd love to keep the tree and help it if possible.  It just looks so sick at the moment.

I consulted a forum instead of a tree surgeon because I was actually concerned I'd be told the worst so they get the job of cutting it down = £££ for them instead of a "oh your tree will be fine!" situation.

That said, if the writing is on the wall for the poor plant, I'd sooner get it down and rebuild that area now than after I ahve sorted the garden, etc...

Thank you all for replies - is there a way to source a good tree surgeon who won't simply want to fell everything to make a quick buck?

Thanks,

O

I can confirm buds are starting to appear.

Some notes:

There is a park/playground behind that fence - should this be considered from a H&S point of view?

The leaves all had large brown spots on during the summer.

Thank you for your quick response!

Dear all, I am after advice regarding a poorly looking horse chestnut tree in my garden.

I moved into the property last summer and noticed it wasn't looking too good.

I have just been working in the garden and snapped some pictures.  I am concerned it is dying.

Can anyone advise?
