  25/1274/CAT Submitted 16 Sep 2025 50 yards away

  1x Silver Birch - Reduce overall canopy back to previous pruning points & shape Reduce the height of the tree by approximately 2.0 metres leaving a final tree height of approximately 9.0 metres. Reduce radial canopy spreads by approximately 2.0 metres leaving a final radial crown spread of approximately 8.0 at all compass points while retaining the main framework & shape of the crown & therefore a high proportion of the foliage bearing structure. 1x Lowest branch on the NW aspect of the tree - Prune back to the main stem. Justification; The proposed works to T1 - 1x Silver Birch are intended to maintain the tree at a sustainable size for its setting whilst preserving its health, structural integrity, and amenity value. The reduction back to previous pruning points will ensure continuity of the existing crown framework, helping to maintain a balanced form and a high proportion of the foliage-bearing structure in accordance with BS3998:2010 Tree Work Recommendations. The specified reduction of approximately 2.0 metres in height and radial canopy spread will leave the tree at a final height of around 9.0 metres with a uniform crown spread of approximately 8.0 metres at all compass points. This will alleviate concerns of excessive shading and encroachment on the surrounding property while retaining the trees contribution to the character of the Conservation Area. All pruning cuts will be made to suitable growth points, with wounds not exceeding 50 mm in diameter, to minimise the risk of decay and promote healthy re-growth. Removal of the lowest branch on the NW aspect will improve clearance and balance without compromising the crown structure. All arisings will be removed from site and returned to a Devon Tree Services depot for recycling, leaving the area safe, clean, and tidy.
