Tree growth is accelerating upwards & outwards & starting to encroach on properties

Reported via mobile in the Other Street Tree Problem category anonymously at 11:35, Monday 10 November 2025

Sent to Merton Council less than a minute later. Council ref: SRQ-1263204-Q1B8B7.

Tree outside No's 60& 62, South Park Road is growing vertically & horizontally and starting to encroach on the two properties I respectfully suggest that it is subject to general pruning before it needs major attention . .
