T1 - Lime, re-pollard to existing pollard points. **A recurring two-year management cycle is requested to enable the tree to be re-pollarded at approximately two-year intervals, maintaining the established pollard form and avoiding the need for more severe pruning in the future.** This mature Lime tree has put a large amount of regrowth since it was last pollard in late 2024, a repeat operation is necessary to prevent the tree from becoming over-dominant in its relatively restricted location. A rolling two-year consent is requested to allow the tree to be re-pollarded on a cyclical basis. This will provide flexibility in programming the works while ensuring the tree continues to be managed in accordance with its established pollarding regime.

Greencroft House Sidmouth Road Colyton EX24 6NP
T1: Cypress - removal. Removal of t1 due to its proximity to client owned and neighbouring structures and primarily its close proximity to the dividing wall. T1 will begin to cause damage to the wall and neighbouring garage immediately behind, with no options to mitigate this and retain the tree, as well as being an inappropriate species of tree with very limited pruning options in an inappropriate location, therefore removal is required. Client is planting four replacement trees this planting season consisting of Hawthorn, Cherry and Rowan.
