Reducing back to sound wood where rot is evident from historic pruning (maximum pruning cut 100mm diameter).

• 23 Badger Sett Blandford St Mary Dorset DT11 9QL

  P/TRT/2023/01314 Submitted 3 Mar 2023 100 yards away

  Line of Beech x10 - Reduce crowns by 4-5m to leave a height of 7-8m as per annotated photograph. The lateral branches should be cut back beyond the boundary of 23 Badger Sett to achieve a minimum 1m clearance from the fence line. Reason: Curtailing the amenity value of home and garden, causing harm/damage to the property by way of damp, loss of light and overgrowth touching house, and overhanging veranda and gazebo area.
