Is this tree diseased?

[Ljc1980]

A few giant trees in the park just beside me blew over during a recent storm, and this one just over my boundary wall is bothering me as it looks a bit rotten. All green mouldy looking with some broken branches.

Does it look diseased? Hoping I can petition the council to get it taken down before it could fall on my house! If could say it looks diseased it may strengthen my case.

Did it produce leaves in the summer?

Looks like a Beech tree with a few Pines behind. Its normal for trees to have green on them like that, especially on the Northern side shaded from the Sun . Id be more concerned if there were fungi growing around the trunk.

The tree does not look diseased. I would sent the photographs to the council pointing out the broken branch and asking for appropriate action.
