Planning application
White Lodge Milldown Road Blandford Forum Dorset DT11 7DD
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
G1 - Western Red Cedars - Reduce the height by 3m to previous points of reduction. This will reduce excessive shading over the garden and reduce the wind load on the group of trees. Remove 2x Low primary limbs back to source (as per annotated photo) due to both limbs causing obstruction to garden sheds and garden access. Prune back the lateral spread over the garden by 1m to suitable growth points up to a height of 5m to stop excessive shading. Tree works seen as suitable maintenance and management.
