25 Lyndhurst Road Exeter EX2 4PA

Granted Exeter 25/1086/CAT Works to Trees in a Conservation Area

Works: Trees

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

T1 Liquid Ambar - Reduction. T1 is a juvenile tree at approximately 4 meters in height, which has previous poor quality reduction work carried out. a reduction of approximately 1200mm (with cut diameters up to 35mm) is required to balance the canopy and keep the tree at suitable size for its tight residential setting. T2 Tulip - Reduction. T2 again is a juvenile tree growing at a fast rate, currently at approximately 7 meters in height. the tree is planted in the corner of a small residential garden, requiring a 1500-2000mm reduction ( with cut diameters up to 40mm) in order to keep the tree at a suitable size for its location. T3 Olive - Removal T3 is a small olive tree at approximately 3.5 meters in height planted in a bricked walled small border very close to the property. the canopy is virtually touching the property, with the possibility for root pressure to cause damage to the surrounding brickwork and patio, with no realistic pruning options to resolve this. `The clients wish for the tree to be removed to allow for the replanting of a more suitable specimen tree.

    Holm Oak. Reduce south east side of the Holm oak to bring the tree back into shape. There are very long lateral limbs which are holding a lot of weight at the ends. The tree is showing signs that other limbs that have died back, which we don't want to happen to this side therefore reducing the weight and bulge in the canopy will help the tree's strength.

    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
