The huge pine trees that are in the ground to the side of our property have been left to grow unchecked. Most are half covered in ivy and are at a height that sees them move a lot in light winds, let alone the increasing storms. The trees are mainly shallow rooting pines and as they are growing in the loose soil of the disused slag heap it is possible they could fall.

One tree fell a few years ago blocking the only route in and out of the lower rank of houses, luckily that time I fell in gardens without causing serious damage or injury. Something must be done before more serious damage occurs or worse, someone gets hurt/killed.
