Works: Trees

Part of this application was approved and part refused. The decision notice on the council portal sets out which is which.

Proposal

T1- English Oak- Works Included * Crown reduce the mature oak tree by approximately 1-2 metres in height and lateral spread, maintaining a natural, balanced appearance. * Remove all dead, dying and broken branches throughout the canopy. * Crown lift the tree to approximately 5 metres (16 feet) above ground level. * All pruning to be carried out in accordance with BS3998:2010 - Tree Work Recommendations. The tree is located immediately adjacent to a primary school and a well-used pedestrian footpath. The proposed works are intended to manage the size and spread of the mature canopy, remove dead, dying or broken branches and provide appropriate clearance over surrounding areas, reducing the potential risk of branch failure affecting pupils, pedestrians or neighbouring property. The works represent proportionate arboricultural management of the tree and will be undertaken in accordance with BS3998-2010, retaining the trees natural form, amenity value and long-term health while managing its relationship with the surrounding area.

    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
