Planning application
41 Roman Way Lechlade Gloucestershire GL7 3BS
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
Tree species: Field Maple Mature Field Maple. Proposed works: - Reduce canopy volume 40% - Cuts approximately 1.5-1.75m from branch tips Reasons for work: The tree's canopy is physically contacting the house, posing a risk of damage to brickwork, guttering, roof tiles, and external fixtures. - The proximity of large limbs increases the risk of impact damage during storms or high winds. - Seasonal leaf-fall is likely to block gutters and downpipes, increasing damp and drainage risks. - A significant reduction is required to ensure long-term safety, maintain adequate clearance from property, and prevent structural or cosmetic damage
