Mabaker Posted Wednesday at 10:34 Share Posted Wednesday at 10:34 I noticed a sign on one of the trees along Barry Road. It's a few trees down from Etherow Street Bus stop. ( Going into London). It is going to be felled tomorrow. Reason for felling. . . Deceased. I admit I'm no tree expert but can a dead tree still produce masses of leaves? Maybe someone who knows better than me can explain. Or is it just that someone finds this tree to be an inconvenience for whatever reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alice Posted Wednesday at 10:49 Share Posted Wednesday at 10:49 There are many trees in Peckham Rye Park with the same notice on and the same reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kipper_1972 Posted Wednesday at 14:52 Share Posted Wednesday at 14:52 For your peace of mind, the local authority has each tree registered on a plan. They make a risk assessment and it's their decision where public safety is concerned. It doesn't mean it's going to fall down soon, but you'll see they replace trees that they take out (eventually) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think they will replace it, as ours was, with what is now a healthy looking, growing fast tree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
