Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 - Fraxinus excelsior (Ash) - A 3m crown reduction is recommended due to the poor structural condition of the crown and the location of the tree. It is a historic high pollard (9m) with poor elongated and dog-legged asymmetrical regrowth which is now heavily end-weighted over the parking area and towards the main house. There are also some decay pockets at old pruning wounds, split limbs and minor deadwood in the crown. T2 - Quercus robur (English Oak) - A 2m crown reduction is recommended to balance the poor structural condition of the elongated, end-weighted phototrophic branches to the north.There is a tear out on a limb and moderate deadwood. T4 - Fraxinus excelsior (Ash) -A 2m crown reduction is recommended to improve the crown structure and balance the crown in relation to the proposed works to T1 and T2. The tree has moderate vitality and some deadwood. T12 - Fraxinus excelsior (Ash) - Deadwood removal only. T13 - Fraxinus excelsior (Ash) - Deadwood removal only.
