Decided East Cambridgeshire 23/00290/TRE Work to tree within Conservation area

Works: Trees Small domestic

Read from the description, not a valuation. How we read the register

Decided. The decision notice on the council portal carries the outcome in full, including any conditions.

Proposal

T1 & T4 Apple - Carry out initial prune of up to 25% of canopy to improve appearance & health. A further renovating prune will be carried out about 12-18 months after initial works, to complete canopy thinning and improvement in appearance & health. The aggregate canopy reduction across the initial and renovating prune will not exceed a third. T2 Pear - Carry out initial prune of up to 25% of canopy to improve appearance & health. Tree is likely to require minimal thinning after removal of elder (see tree survey photographs document) but reduction of asymmetric over-extended branch towards the shed (falls within the 25%). A further renovating prune will be carried out about 12-18 months after initial works, to complete canopy thinning and improvement in appearance & health. The aggregate canopy reduction across the initial and renovating prune will not exceed a third.
