This mountain ash tree unfortunately died over the summer after several years of decline. Numerous branches came off in the last storm and there's a snapped branch resting in the canopy which could fall on the parked cars. I think the tree could fall if there is another storm. It would be good if it could be removed and another tree planted here please.
