  Other trees in require application to DCC. Requesting to remove ash, silver birch and conifer hedge shown in photographs 3,4 and 5. They have all been planted far too close to each other and as a result are all poor specimens. Also the ash has dieback. The benefit to removing these trees is that it will create space for the oak tree highlighted in photograph 5 which is a good specimen to continue to grow as well as maintaining the boundary between the two properties.

  The ash tree I am applying to remove comes under the group TPO for Dukes Quarry. It is identified in the photographs provided. I am applying for it to be removed as it is heavily weighted over the property of Standwell house and access to it is limited to on foot. I have worked extensively on trees with ash dieback over the last 18 months and they are both incredibly dangerous and unpredictable and in my experience safest to work on as soon as signs of the disease are identified. Due to its location and lack of access I am applying to remove it while it is safe to climb and dismantle being proactive rather than reactive to it when the disease has fully taken hold. We would be happy to replant with a suitable replacement such as small leaf lime but are happy to listen to your recommendations.
