Planning application
East Lodge 66 Lansdown Road Cheltenham Gloucestershire GL51 6QL
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1: Part of an old conifer hedge, to be replaced with a Prunus lusitanica hedge (quoted between 2m and 4m for immediate screening) as per the attached survey and planting plan. T2: Already removed by others after the survey. We plan to replace trees in this area and add Fagus sylvatica 'Atropunicea', Cornus kousa, and Viburnum plicatum 'Kilimandjaro'. T3: Dead tree, already removed by others. T4: Conifer to be removed. It is growing directly next to a large Pittosporum that is leaning over the pavement outside the property. It is impossible to remove one without damaging and undermining the other, and the Pittosporum needs to be removed for highway safety. We plan to replace these with a row of Pyrus calleryana 'Chanticleer' (minimum girth 12-14cm), which is much more in keeping with the property's style.
