Flat 1 4 Cromwell Road Hove BN3 3EA
T1 Sycamore at Flat 1, 4 Cromwell Road BN3 3EA. Requesting the removal of a tree which is excessively large for a residential garden and is in very close proximity to the boundary wall of the properties in Oxford Mews. We are seeking a permanent solution to the ongoing risk of danger afforded by falling branches and flooding from blocked drains as a result of the continual shedding of foliage. The lack of airflow caused by the overly large canopy has led to damp and darkness at the property of the applicant, which has ongoing health implications. The crown of the tree was significantly pruned in September 2022 but has now regrown and remains problematic to the properties in Oxford Mews.
