In the process of purchasing and of end terrace converted old mill house with this massive London plane tree outside (about 10 metres away). The house is 215 years old and the old mills were refurbished in 2012 into units. Tree looks older maybe? House is grade 2 listed building and set in conservation area. Trees are of heritage interest and protected with TPO. Trees and gardens are fully maintained by the estate management company at an annual cost to residents. Property is freehold which is my responsibility. Currently no sign of cracks or subsidence but my mortgage lender said the tree could affect resale value of the house. Can trees this size and for the length of time they have been standing cause damage to property? What about it’s robustness in a storm? Do you think I should walk away? Do London plane trees add value or will property loose value. I am so so confused! Help!!!

On the edge of our residential block we have a London plane tree, which is about 170 years old. The bottom of the trunk has grown over the years, and a couple of years ago we noticed a crack on the bottom part of the bricked fence as shown below. Someone stepped on the edge and broke it as shown below. After clearing the debris we saw that the tree has subsumed part of the fence, as shown below. What is the best way to deal with this so as to protect the tree?

Does anyone want or know who will take logs and chip from Stamford Hill, London? We can arrange for transport but need access for 20 ton tippers. The trees are London Plane and Sycamore. Thanks, Dan Godfrey 01924 830961

Hi guys my neighbour had her London Plane tree pollarded 2-3 months ago. There are no signs of new growth anywhere on the tree. Its an old one, I don't know the DBH exactly but i would guess at just over a metre. I read that one shouldnt pollard mature or old trees, not sure whether thats nonsense or not. Any help or ideas? I fear the poor old thing may have suffered a lot!
