As the tree is a lot older than the dwelling then it's not the tree in

It did have a TPO on it, but examination showed a disease in the lower trunk and roots and in the interest of public safety, it was recommended for removal. Some of the pictures show the rot in the middle of the trunk.

The word that came to my mind was vandal. Is it legal to fell a mature tree without planning permission. We need planning permission here to fell trees if the diameter is greater than a fraction of that of the tree in the photos. It's fairly easy to check registered TPO and local amenity trees online, I believe through the councils' website. RG did so recently. We also have to ask permission of a local conservation body, too. Anyhow, a tree that big would need a bona fide tree surgeon who, if he's a genuine professional, will check with Council guidelines. -- Spider. On high ground in SE London gardening on heavy clay |

Hope you aren't suggesting that the job was done on the quiet, no names no pack drill, by a tree cowboy called Tarzan? :-) With his horse tied up outside the forest :~). The council in Leiden has being ignoring the rules. They recently felled 200 trees without going through the formalities. That has triggered eight legal actions against the council. Oops! That's naughty on a big scale. I have known minor 'accidents' occur, but 200 trees is unforgiveable. Presumably the land was wanted for development? Very sad, though. -- Spider.

Tonto was borrowing Trigger at the time. LOL! The council in Leiden has being ignoring the rules. They recently felled 200 trees without going through the formalities.

Presumably the land was wanted for development? Very sad, though. It wasn't done in one place in one incident, hence the eight legal actions. One newspaper has a theory that councils are making money selling felled trees to power stations that burn wood chips. Appalling. I'd rather pay higher taxes - not that I expect anyone to agree with me. -- Spider. On high ground in SE London gardening on heavy clay |
