Old Strand House 41 The Strand Topsham EX3 0AY
T1 Lime ? reduce crown dimensions by approximately 2m (max cut diameters <75mm). Work discussed on site and recommended by Joe Moreshead (TPO Officer ECC) Reasons - Because the tree (T1 ? Lime) is considered to make a significant contribution to the character and visual amenity value of the wider conservation area, any proposal that is considered to be unjustified and detrimental to the tree, is likely to result in the council serving a Tree Preservation Order (TPO).

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
