Planning application

30 Beeches Road Cirencester Gloucestershire GL7 1BW

Split decision Cotswold 26/01878/TPO Trees

Works: Trees

Part of this application was approved and part refused. The decision notice on the council portal sets out which is which.

Proposal

1. The tree marked TPO Tree (Copper Beech TPO158) is very tall and full. Propose to reduce its crown by 40% to reduce the excessive shading experienced by residents at Purley Court. 2. The tree marked TPO Tree (Mature Ash TOP 158/14). Pollard this tree to the point where it had been pollarded in the past (i.e. reduce its size by approximately 60%). Again due to the excessive shading and threat posed. In the case of failure it would cause significant damage to Purley Court residences)

As published by the council, reference 26/01878/TPO

    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.
