Planning application

Adams Cottage Rodmarton Cirencester Gloucestershire GL7 6PE

Granted Cotswold 21/03527/TCONR Works to trees in conservation areas

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1 (Lime) - Remove epicormic growth from main trunk up to height of 10m. T2 (Lime) - Remove 2 large limbs, one at 8m & one at 10m and reduce 2 limbs back by 5m to re-balance tree. T3, T4 & T5 (Lime) - Remove epicormic growth up to a height of approximately 10m. Refer to attached plans and photographs. The 'Tree locations (numbered)' document provides the reference for the proposed works for each of five trees. All trees are Lime trees. None are protected trees (no TPO). The proposed works are: Tree 1 - Removal of overhanging branches (quantity: 6). Tree 2 - Removal of 4 large lower limbs, and 4 further limbs to be reduced by up to 50%, to reduce the current 10m overhang into the Adams Cottage garden, and across the roof of Adams Cottage itself. Tree 3,4,5 - These three trees are co-located (growing close together), and these three trees together overhang Adams Cottage by up to 10m. The removal of up to 8 lower branches in these three trees (combined total) is proposed. No reduction in tree height is requested for any of the above five trees. Trees 2, 3,4,5 are believed to be contributing to damp (as reported in a recent Surveyor report), as well as materially reducing natural light to three windows of the property. The trees have been inspected by a professional tree surgeon. Examples of where limb reduction would be made are shown in the document provided 'Tree and Branch cutting points'.

  • 26/01836/TPO Granted

    27 Dormers Close Tetbury Gloucestershire GL8 8HJ

    T1 - Sycamore tree to be crown reduced and balanced. This tree is absolutely massive in comparison to the very small garden behind this property, and the garden has nothing growing in it at all as this tree now completely covers the whole garden. The branches are very nearly touching the house, there is significant dead wood in the centre of the crown and the tree is very misshapen. There was a large Ash tree growing next to it at number 28 that was removed due to Ash Dieback some years ago. This removal has left the Sycamore tree very two dimensional with most of the canopy over the garden of number 27. There is a very large lateral scaffold limb protruding from approximately one meter from the ground out of the side of the main trunk, that probably has nearly half of the canopy growing from it. Currently the tree has a height of approx. 12-14 meters, with a spread of approx. 7-8 meters north and east, approx. 6-7 meters south and approx. 2-3 meters west. Proposal is to reduce the height by approx. 4-5 meters, the spread by approx. 2-3 meters north and east, approx. 2-3 meters south and approx. 0.5 meters west to blend and balance the canopy. Also to remove the dead stem top in the centre.
