Tree with TPO outside 70 Pinchbeck Rd
Reported via desktop in the Hanging tree or branch category anonymously at 12:10, Wednesday 10 June 2026
Sent to Lincolnshire County Council less than a minute later. Council ref: 2894538.
The branches on the tree (and others with TPOs) are now overgrowing our garden and growing into our trees and low plants, into phone wires, and some of the bigger branches are looking dangerous, especially in the winds. As far as we are aware we aren't allowed to touch these trees as they have the TPO's, but they are getting unruly now.
