Good morning, Recently you had a team putting up the new fence that separates the m6 walkway and the houses, unfortunately it seems the fence has come apart and is now leaning into the walkway, i feel it may completely collapse shortly ! Also could you please inform the team that comes to trim all the trees back if they could also trim the ones that are now growing over my garage and garden, they did it a few years ago but they are all growing over again. Many thanks,
