• Unit 10 To 12 Kestrel Business Park Kestrel Way Sowton Industrial Estate Exeter EX2 7JS

  26/0243/TPO Submitted 19 Feb 2026 150 yards away

  Grey Poplar T1 Justification The crown hangs low over the compound and is beginning to obstruct the use of the machinery, as well limiting access to high sided vehicles. There is also some epicormic growth on the main stem which is also beginning to become an obstruction. It overhangs the compound and several machines and pieces of equipment essential to the operation of the business, as well as the operatives. There are several hyperextended lateral branches throughout the crown. This is most apparent in the western aspect, where the branches are disproportionately long. Such as the species profile, the likelihood of failure from a large lateral branch is moderate. Specification of works ? Remove the epicormic growth from the main stem with a 100mm maximum cut diameter. ? Crown raise to 5.5m above ground level on the western aspect by removing the lowest four branches with a 125mm maximum cut diameter. ? Reduce the side of the remaining western crown aspect by 4m with a 125mm maximum cut diameter. ? Reduce the side of the rest of the crown 2-3m with a 100mm maximum cut diameter to maintain some crown symmetry, target branches that extend beyond the general crown profile.
