Description:
T3 Eucalyptus - Fell and take root out.Leaning over dangerously close to the left sided fence of my property which I share with neighbours. Tree causing nuisance with bird droppings on neighbouring garden shed as well as shedding of leaves on to their property's garden.However the main concern at the moment is that it is leaning a lot and it is at danger of toppling over and causing serious damage to the fence as well as the neighbour's garden shedRegarding replant options, I am not planning to replant a tree as I would like to pave that bit of the garden close to the fence so that I can put some tables and chairs in my garden.
