Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1. Large Copper Beech at front of property- it was noted that a large bough had broken off the tree on 23/05/26 and although the tree appeared to be healthy, it was noted that the bough was very large and heavy and hence the reason for falling. So recommended work is for tree branches to be cut back to points of new growth, keeping shape and tree visually aesthetic. Tree to be lifted all round, off pathway and away from street lights etc. Tree to be dead wooded, removing the smaller branches out of the tree. T2. Dying Oak tree at the front of property - to be dead wooded and cut back to point of living growth to encourage further new growth and prolong life of tree

TPO26/105 Granted
Little Beehive 9 Purnell Gardens Hagley Worcestershire DY9 0BQ
The tree at the end of our garden, which has a TPO needs to be managed as the branches grow horizontally across our fence causing pressure to and damage to the top of the fence. I would like to remove the branches that are damaging the fence.

TPO26/133 Granted
177 Worcester Road Hagley Worcestershire DY9 0PR
I would like permission to cut back some of the branches, including the top of the tree. The beech tree is becoming extremely large with branches over-reaching to my neighbours and we are receiving complaints about beech nuts and branches falling onto neighbouring property. I have always had concerns about the tree falling and so would like to keep the height trimmed so that it doesn't reach the property, should it fall.
