Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
1x Lime (Tilia sp.) T1 - rear garden, left hand boundary - pollard and reduce all main stems back to previous pollard points by about 2/3 metres (or to suitable secondary growth where applicable). Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches as part of the operation. 1x Maple (Acer sp.) T2 - rear garden near left boundary fence - approximate 30% crown reduction, (2 metres) selectively shortening branches throughout the canopy to reduce overall height and spread while maintaining a natural shape. Remove any dead, crossing, or damaged branches as part of the work.
