38 The Ridgeway, Rothley, Leicestershire, LE7 7LE

Decided Charnwood P/26/0136/2 Tree works Conservation Area

Works: Trees

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

Proposal

Felling of a group of popular trees which has been maintained as a high hedge and has come to the end of it's life, as they have large amounts of decay in the trunks and some are dead. There has been fallen branches from the group which have fallen in to next doors tennis court, damaging their fencing. The plan is to to fell and replant. There is also an oak tree which requires reduction of a large limb, by approx. 3 meters, which is extending over the garden. This oak has previously been pollarded to reduce stress on the tree.
