Planning application
24 Salutary Mount Fore Street Heavitree EX1 2QE
Works: Trees
Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.
Proposal
T1 - Copper beech - crown lift minor epicormic and secondary branches to achieve approximately 4 - 5m clearance from the buildings, avoiding removal of large primary branches; selectively reduce branches in direct contact with the house and neighbouring property by up to 2 m back to suitable laterals to give around 1-1.5 m clearance, retaining the main crown framework. The home owner has requested the works as the branches of the trees are in contact with their property and the neighbours.
