  Mixed Species Size Boundary Hedge between number 16 and number 14; remove all hedges to 1 ft above ground level in order for a mechanical device to pull out stumps. Front boundary yew hedge running parallel with the road; remove the front row only closest to the property to ground level. Remaining hedge to be reduced in height by 50% and all remaining profiles to be trimmed. Conservation Area Justification The proposed works are to facilitate the removal and replacement of an existing deteriorating boundary hedge and associated vegetation in order to install a new, more suitable and manageable boundary treatment. The existing mixed species hedge located between Nos. 14 and 16 has become overgrown, uneven in form, and is no longer considered appropriate for its intended boundary function. Removal to approximately 300 mm (1 foot) above ground level is required to allow the safe use of mechanical equipment for stump extraction and preparation of the area for the proposed replacement boundary installation. Works to the front boundary Yew hedge are proposed to retain the majority of the existing screening and visual amenity value whilst allowing sufficient space for the new boundary arrangement. Only the front row of Yew growth nearest the property is to be removed to ground level, with the retained hedge reduced in height by approximately 50% and trimmed on all remaining profiles to restore a manageable, uniform, and sustainable form. The proposed works are considered reasonable arboricultural management and are not expected to have a significant adverse impact on the character or appearance of the Conservation Area. The retained hedge sections will continue to provide screening, soft landscaping, and ecological value, whilst the replacement boundary treatment will improve the long-term usability, maintenance, and presentation of the site. All arisings will be removed from site and returned to a Devon Tree Services Ltd depot for recycling, leaving the area safe, clean

  19 Falkland Close Exeter EX4 5EZ

  Oak tree on no mans land embankment which over looks garden of 18 Falkland Close, Exeter, EX4 5EZ. It has a large branch overhanging our garden. Tree surgeon Mitchell Tree Surgery has visited site and advised it needs to be removed. He says it is a large overhanging heavy limb which could cause considerable damage. Last year a large branch from a neighbouring oak next to It came down in a storm and caused damage. Our neighbours in number 18 and ourselves are concerned about this particular branch we wish to report to be removed. The tree itself has grown to 60 foot plus range and we all feel our houses are at risk. Sketch plan attached
