Have these two fungi growing next to and on a TPO (UK) oak tree in my front garden.
Inputted application for felling to stump/ felling 3m but still waiting approval on either option.
How concerned should I be? Tree won’t topple over anytime soon will it?

Definitely concern’ing’
That’s wood decay fungi
I am in us not uk but that appears to be oak bracket, a major glaring red flag, known to rapidly degrade structural stability of oaks
Looks like ganoderma resinaceum
Thank you all for replying! My concern shall stay at a concerned consistency and pressure the council for fell to stump
84.678% concerned.
I love being in both mushroom subs and tree subs because what amounts to the same picture is either labeled “Amazing find today!” or “Well this is concerning”
