Proposal

2 x Lawson Cypress (T1 & T2) - remove as they are located too close to boundary wall and are liable to cause future displacement. Tree (T2) is also causing damage to driveway and roots have allegedly entered neighbour's drainage pipes. University have been notified of this by landowner who has requested that the tree be felled. Due to the confined planting area, the trees will not be replaced.
