    T1 - Cherry - Fell. Reason: Tree seeded itself in a confined space beside garden shed which has been damaged as a result and now needs replacing; allow safe replacement of shed. I do not wish to replant due to low amenity value in existing position and the recent planting of 3 trees shown on the sketch plan T6 (Magnolia), T7, T8 (both Acers). T2 - Cherry - Remove lower branches. Reason: Tree has grown next to neighbouring garages belonging to flats. Lower branches are resting on roof tiles and I am concerned they may be causing damage, or will do in the future.

    T3 - Hawthorn - Fell. Reason: tree is dying and dangerous. Half of the Hawthorn was already removed and replaced by the Rowan (sketch plan T4). A diseased oak tree previously removed was replanted with a Liquid Amber (sketch plan T5), in front of remaining Hawthorn under the advice of the Tree Officer as it was acknowledged then that the remaining Hawthorn was dying. Therefore preference to not replant.
