Row of mature trees bordering village Green area, beside church.

Reported via desktop in the Hanging tree or branch category anonymously at 13:19, Sunday 5 October 2025

Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2857694.

The large tree closest to the church on the Green has a low branch that now hangs over the road and is being hit by HGVs, buses etc now. The whole row of trees now have low hanging branches onto the Green - there is an Xmas lights event on Nov 30th that uses the Green, and the low branches will prevent safe use by stall holders and the public. I believe these are SKDC responsibility and they weren’t cut back last year, to my knowledge.
