Dangerous Trees

Reported via desktop in the Park / Open space category anonymously at 11:19, Wed 7 February 2024

Sent to London Borough of Bexley less than a minute later. Report ref: 5542815.

Due to the recent storms a large bough has broken off from one of the trees and it is lodged onto another bough which is pulling the tree precariously over my property. Many branches are hanging over and seriously needs pruning. I also have concerns with regards to another large tree to the right of this one. It is directly in line with mine and my neighbours homes and if it were to fall, like so many others in the area recently, it would fall directly onto both our properties. Please can it be removed as a precautionary measure to safeguard loss of life and homes.

  • The bough has been removed however the trees overhanging my property still require pruning and the dangerous tree, if it were to fall, as so many trees in the area already have, is in the direct path of my neighbour and my homes and I would ask again for it to be removed before a tragedy occurs.
