Planning application
Church Of St Mary Magdalene Main Street Duns Tew OX25 6JL
Works: Trees
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
T1 Oak - Crown reduction by either 3 metres or 4 metres (depending on which section as some lmbs are more elongated than others) to bring whole canopy into shape. The limbs which are more affected by the wound on the main stem will need to be reduced more but will not reduce those not as affected by more than is necessary.
