Planning application

13 Churchfields, -, Broxbourne, Hertfordshire, EN10 7JU

Decided Broxbourne 07/24/0809/TW Works to Trees

Works: Trees

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

T1: The large 13-metre (approx.) tall and and 9-metre wide multi-stemmed Sour Cherry (Prunus Cerasus) to undergo a crown reduction and thinning by 30% (up-to 4-metres) to reduce its dominance. Through pruning, dead wooding, thinning and overall reduction the crown will be opened up to leave the tree healthy and balanced with a long-lasting shape fit for the habitat. The work will also create more light into the garden to allow other planting to thrive T2: The 5.5-metre-tall "lollipop" shaped Lawson Cypress (Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana) tree to the rear left of the garden to be systematically dismantled down to a low stump. Note: This cypress tree would only take minimal trimming before showing unsightly holes, therefore recommendation to remove. T3: The two 5.5-metre-tall Apple (Malus Domestica) trees in the rear garden to undergo a light crown reduction and thinning of the long 1.5-metre -long upright 'water' shoots to bring the tree back into a nice shape. The trees will be left... read more
