A special branch operation has been carried out in Brigg near the town's police station
It was undertaken on fenced off grassland to which the public does not have access.
A mature ash tree - subject to a Tree Preservation Order - has been trimmed back on Cary Lane following an application submitted to North Lincolnshire Council seeking approval.
This explained that "falling debris" was affecting an adjoining parking area near the station.
Our pictures show the tree (above) following the work and (below) how it looked a few months ago.
The tree is close to the police station (just off our pictures to the left), its surfaced car parking extension and an office building on Cary Lane used by the force.
