Granted Cambridge 20/2019/TTCA Works to CA trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

Large Tilia sp. (x297), pollard to 7m above ground level. The tree suffered a large central stem failure recently during high winds, collapsed stem largely landed in 31s garden but did take out phone lines for neighbouring property. Tree overhangs neighbouring properties and garden structures, a further stem failure could cause serious structural damage to neighbouring buildings in future.

    T1 - Cherry tree - Reduce crown by about 3m, or, if this is not possible reduce the crown where it overhangs 67 Hemingford Road by a similar amount. Reason - This would reduce the overshadowing of the roof of 67 Hemingford Road and also prevent branches impinging on telephone wires connecting to 65 Hemingford Road.
