Planning application
1 Elms Avenue Great Shelford CB22 5LN
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 - Mature Silver Birch - This tree is in good health. It is however becoming to large for where it is situated. Complaints have been raised by several neighbors about light and dropping branches, in particular 10 Ashen green. I propose a 3.5m reduction in height and 1.5m of the sides to suitable growth points.

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.
